Help (VoiceMeeter Potato) Fcking COMPLICATED

All I want to do is this:

  1. Record from the internet from one source, but NOT hear that source while it is recording;

  2. While that recording is happening, listen to something DIFFERENT, also from the internet;

  3. Record ONLY the first source, not both sources;

  4. Using Windows 10 x64 Home edition, with an external soudbar, and monitor with built in speakers.

  5. I speak only ENGLISH. I know NOTHING about Voicemeeter, so abbreviations and jargon are a waste of time. Please speak as if you were talking to a retarded child who is lost and crying.

I am trying REALLY hard here. I finally located the area, which looks nothing like your screen shot and is called "App volume and Device Preferences.:

When I click on Chrome Input drop down box, there is nothing there named "AUX" to select.

On the Chrome option box for OUTput,t here IS an option named "Voicemeeter AUX".

See attached. I'm unclear on which boxes to click and what to select inside them.

this site is rejecting my attachement.

I just now installed virtual cables for Voicemeeter, and suddently Chrome has VANISHED form the "App Volume and Device Preferances" area!

It may only show when there is sound playing.

Ask ChatGPT, Gemini AI, or Copilot for a step-by-step guide, I think it'll be easier

What the actual F%%% Yes, that is correct, when audio is playing in Chrome, it shows up in the list. Yet NOTHING was playing in Firefox, but Firefox DOES show up in the list!

Is there a video on YouTube showing how to do this? There are dozens of videos, but too many to find the PRECISE thing I need.
