    Headset Splitter Mic not working


    So I bought this headset on Amazon and I knew it needed an adapter so I bought this adapter with it. I also had a 3.5 mm splitter from gamestop so I could use the headset on my xbox. The only problem is the mic doesn’t work. I was able to hear the game but not able to talk. I have tried looking and i’m not sure what I need or what i’m doing wrong. If anyone can suggest some things for me to get or what I need to change it would be much appreciated. (Also it may be confusing when I said the mic doesnt work, I meant the mic through the splitter, the mic works perfectly fine on my pc but not through the splitter.)

    :)

    Sadly what you want to achieve exactly isn't possible. There is another way around but it means purchasing a "Startech.com 3.5mm 4 pin to 2x 3pin 3.5mm Headset Splitter Adapter - M/F" from amazon, along with a Stereo Headset adapter and another mic. You
    then plug your Krackens into the headphone part of the splitter the seperate mic into the MIC part and then plug that into the Xbox Stereo Headset Adapter.

    Will the xbox one headset adapter make the controller output game sound in any headset?

    Yes, you will be "able to use my 3.5mm mp3 headphones with the adapter"

    If you want to use a mic along with your headphones you will need to buy a 3.5mm headset splitter.

    You can also use earbuds or IEM but if they have an inline mic, the mic will not work.

    Why is my Xbox One headset adapter not working? I bought the proper cable adapter with it.

    If your headset has two separate headphone jacks one for audio and one for Mic try this y splitter, I got mine off of Amazon.

    Party chat through Xbox App while hearing voice/game audio through headset connected to controller

    Hi there Horito,

    Thanks for the reply. I was able to take a look into some resources. If you are using an Xbox One Controller, you will need the following components:

    • Xbox One headset adapter
    • 3.5mm CTIA Splitter cable (3 lines on the jack)
    • 3.5mm jack to jack auxiliary cable ( 2 lines on the jack)
    You will need to connect the Xbox One headset adapter to the Xbox One Controller. Then the 3.5mm CTIA Splitter cable (3 lines on the jack) connects into the adapter. The splitter cable will be identified as headset and mic. The 3.5mm jack to jack auxiliary
    cable ( 2 lines on the jack) will be used in the mic cord to the Yeti Mic.

    Hope this helps.

    mic not working

    if the headset has 2 jacks you will need to get a 3.5mm Stereo Splitter Audio to Mic & Headset Jack Plug Adapter that you can plug both into so you can then plug it into the controller.
