will this conversion allow use of microphone function of headset?

Sorry I haven't checked it for that purpose and don't have a way to do so, but I would assume...that it should...

This did NOT allow microphone thru. I found another that did allow, but voice so soft, I still could not use it either. Good luck!

I'm not sure but in any case I wouldn't buy it just because of its severely limited compatibility. Ideally you want a mic that will plug into anything and work. This isn't it.

Yes. We did that a few weeks ago. You do need the 1/4" to 1/8" adapter of course. But our unit had a lot of hum/hiss in it, rendering it unusable.I'm thinking that cabled versions (shielded cables) might be an option (saw them in Russia recently, ironically).But I decided this is awkward unless you have one mike per person, so I'm looking at sensitive microphones. Some seem to be able to cover large areas. For which a USB interface seems to be suggested, not plug in. Sound cards in PCs seem to not be adequate for good results, I've read - and experienced.

Honestly i haven't tried it since the main reason for what i bought the product was to listen not use it in mic terms. But it's all about sound being transferred. So my best guess it's that it should work for that.

Yes, but you won't be able to control the volume from your headset. It worked for me for 2 days, then stopped. Cheap product.

No. This product only provides phantom power, and doesn't provide the analog to digital conversion that what you are trying to do will require. You need what is called an audio interface. There are a lot to choose from at a very large range of prices. Behringer makes one that starts at about $50 (the UM2) which will provide phantom power to the microphone while providing the PC connectivity you need.

You can only do that if you have an old style headset with separate mic and headphone plugs. This adapter is used to split a headset jack into separate mic and headphone connectors. If you have a headset with a single plug, just connect it to the headset jack and allows you to use the headset mic.

Yes. Just plug it into the green audio port on the computer. If you wish to use the microphone as well, search "Phone headset to PC adaptor".

It's just a USB connection, there is no adapter in between. I'm sure you could, if you wanted to, you could get a USB to 3.5mm audio jack, but I'm not 100% sure. But this headset is JUST a USB connection.

i'm not sure...but i bought it to use for my headset to speak over my cordless phone and it doesn't work...

I don't know if you would be able to use the microphone but there are all types of adapters that convert the pink and green jacks into various devices. Just type in "pc to ps3 headset adapters" and find one that you think will work for you.

The headset you refer to uses 3.5mm connectors, such as the iPhone or any of the Android phones. This adaptor converts a 2.5mm connector, such as the old Symbian Nokia phones used. You need a different adaptor. And, whether it's the adaptor or my laptop, I can't get it to work for the microphone jack. I've actually gone to using a USB microphone (Audio Technica ATR2100) and a set of earbuds. But I needed that for other uses, anyway.

that would be a strange thing to do. for the same price, you can get a pretty good analog microphone, and skip the two digital conversion steps.

I don't know, I'm only using it to switch between audio lines--I'm not sure its equipped to handle a microphone portion of a smartphone headset. Never tried that, sorry.

Yes. You will need a mic jack converter though. I found one a Radioshack for a really cheap price. You will need a 2.5mm to 3.5mm adapter. Also make sure it has two rings on the tip. 3 rings wont work, and the single ring only records on the left channel.

Yes. You have to go to Settings->Devices->Audio devices to set the headphone output to "all audio" and it works for both game and chat audio as well as the microphone. I use these everyday.

You'd need an adapter such as this one StarTech.com Headset adapter for headsets with separate headphone / microphone plugs - 3.5mm 4 position to 2x 3 position 3.5mm M/F
