Voicemeeter - Lighthost causing peeking
I look all over the internet and nobody seems to be talking about it, I use Voicemeeter on my PC to split my audio into separate tracks for easier editing, recently started using [Lighthost](https://github.com/rolandoislas/LightHost) to add the VST directly into live audio and lessen my work load.

Decent working voice changer for MtF?
Since you need to eq in multiple places, I would recommend a combination of LightHost as your VST host and ReaPlugs for your actual tools (ReaEq is the one we want, but there's a lot of other useful stuff you can play around with like ReaGate for noise gating and ReaFir for background noise removal if you have a mic that pics up everything in a 3 block radius).

Can I use RNNoise outside of OBS? I.e Zoom Meets, Slack, Discord, TeamSpeak, etc.
I have an ASIO soundcard and use Voicemeeter Potato along with lighthost. Voicemeeter is a virtual mixer and it allows you to hook an external send/return to Lighthost, and Lighthost can load up any VST plugins you need.

VSTHost Losing All Plugin Settings When Computer Restarts
So what I ended up doing instead is downloading and using LightHost (https://github.com/rolandoislas/LightHost) to run the plugins and patch them to my A1 (mic input) in Voicemeeter instead, and I set it up so it will now run at startup. Now it's saving all my plugin tweaks and settings with no issues when I restart my windows PC.

Begineer - Using Ampire Standalone
An alternative to SAVIHost might be LightHost it supports loading more than one VST but is still very simple and just sits in your Windows Tray.

Is it possible on windows to share my DAW audio to zoom AND my own audio interface so I can hear myself play with low latency?
I have no idea why but OBS was very cranky working with that plugin, so personally I ended up using a combination of reastream, voicemeeter, and light host.

obs studio face cam exclusive
For OBS, you can use the Virtual Cam plugin (not to be confused with the built in Virtual Cam functionality) which will allow you to feed an individual source in OBS out as a virtual cam device for another application to use.

Sending OBS virtual cam to VirtualBox windows guest?
Is there any way to actually send a virtual webcam (in this case, I am using OBS Virtualcam) to my VirtualBox guest as any form of webcam. Thus far, the only success I have had is sending the integrated camera from my laptop to VirtualBox using Host Extensions. As far as I understand, Host Extensions's webcam feature only can detect usb webcams. Are there any solutions to send a virtual input to VirtualBox. This has been the only situation that an application I use does not detect my virtual webcam.
What are some alternatives?
When comparing LightHost and obs-virtual-cam you can also consider the following projects:
sonobus - Source code for SonoBus, a real-time network audio streaming collaboration tool.
easyeffects - Limiter, compressor, convolver, equalizer and auto volume and many other plugins for PipeWire applications
noise-suppression-for-voice - Noise suppression plugin based on Xiph's RNNoise
