Games Like OVR-DummyHeadMic

Your voice, heard from where you are in VR

OVR-DummyHeadMic is a SteamVR overlay app for Windows that places a virtual dummy head microphone in your VR space. It turns your microphone input into real-time binaural audio based on where you are, and which way you face, relative to the dummy head. Speak from its right and your voice comes from the right. Step behind it and you are heard from behind. It is built for streams and videos that should feel like the audience is in the room with you: ASMR, chatting, role-play, theater, and filming in VRChat.

Match the camera view with what viewers hear

Put the dummy head where your VR camera is, and the viewpoint your audience sees lines up with where your voice is heard from. With VRChat camera sync, the dummy head follows VRChat's User Camera automatically.

Near-real-time processing

In normal use, measured latency is about 25 ms including audio-device input and output (it varies by setup). With VST Bridge, the app itself adds about 5 ms, and the DAW's latency compensation keeps recordings and renders in sync. It is fast enough to monitor yourself while you talk.

Features

Using it for streaming and recording

Capture OVR-DummyHeadMic's output in OBS Studio or similar software with an audio output capture source. Sending it to a dedicated virtual audio device keeps it separate from game sounds and notifications. The user guide walks through the setup.
