To make this work, I’ve found a series of apps that will allow you to combine these discrete channels into a single mono input for Skype and other apps that have microphone inputs. This is usually channel one on your interface or the left side of a stereo output. Skype and other VOIP apps often only accept one channel of audio. If you want to use Skype with an audio interface like a Focusrite, a mixer that sends separate channels via USB or an audio recorder that records to individual tracks but can also function as an interface like the Zoom H6, and you need more than one microphone to be “heard” by Skype (podcast co-host, interviewee, etc) then you have a problem. How do you use a multichannel audio interface with Skype and other VOIP apps when many only take one channel? Use a free app to create a mono input! See all my gear at & listed below.

This method is also doable if you do not have Stereo Mix. This video will guide you through the process of using the ‘Listen to this device’ feature and Stereo Mix to record both audio channels in one track.
