    Do I need headset with microphone or can I use microphone only?


    Hi

    I have a Xbox series X. This is connected to an Dolby Atmos sound system by HDMI. What do I need and how do I configure a microphone in this. I dont want to use a headset and would prefer a wireless microphone I can attach to my shirt, I can live with a wired microphone if needed. Either connected to the controller or USB directly to Xbox.
    If anyone have some suggestions and can link to products they are happy with and use in a similar scenario, this would be appriciated

    Best regards

    :)

    Do I need headset with microphone or can I use microphone only?

    Hello, first it's a pleasure to be able to help you today.

    My name is welcome to the community.

    Hello Vasefis, officially by Microsoft the simplest version that exists of Microphone is one for chat.

    https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/d/xbox-one-wire...

    There may be others on the market that are only the microphone, the most important is the connection in the control, so that it can function properly must be in the CTIA standard.

    Connect a compatible headset

    How to record audio with Xbox Stereo Headset microphone with Windows 10

    This sort of works. But it only works if:

    1. When I plug my Xbox headset into the microphone port on the back of my motherboard, which prompts a Realtek popup in the lower-right hand of the screen which prompts me to select what I plugged in: headphones, microphone, or line-in. I select "Microphone".

    2. I specify the Host in Audacity as MME.

    Then I can record audio into Audacity. However, I can't listen through my Xbox headset because it's plugged into the microphone port and assigned as a microphone, not as an output device like a headphone.

    So I still need to know how to use this Xbox Stereo headset to record Audacity and listen to my audio simultaneously.

    Party problems

    Hi OneEyedWilly723,

    Based on the information that you provided, it's possible that the microphone on your headset is faulty. For you to isolate this issue, I suggest that you use another headset on your computer and try joining another party chat in the Xbox app. If the microphone
    in that headset works fine, then we can confirm that the microphone that you're currently using is faulty and may need to replace.

    Let us know if you need clarifications. We'd be glad to further assist you.
