Can I use this cable to connect 2 XLR cable mics [L &amp; R setup] to my laptop mic input and maintain L/R separation?

I have never tried that combo as I used the cable for outputs rather than inputs however it stands to reason it just might work if you trace it back the othe way... I suspect it might be a mono connection though...

I have a small mic/line mixer and us this cable to come from the mains and into a sound system. I also use this cable to go from electronic drums and my laptop into two channels of the mixer. Hope this helps. Rick

It could conceivably be done if you used an XLR-to-dual 1/4" adapter and ran it into either of the stereo faders, but I don't recommend it. You'd be better off with the Xenyx 802 because it has 2 XLR inputs and you wouldn't need to McGyver your second mic.

Yes, you can. It seems it will give two discrete tracks for two mics. Watch for noise as it is a passive box.

I don't think so. The two input tails of this splitter have female connections which, of course, require male XLR connectors. You may have to find an adapter for your wireless mic receiver to convert that line to a male connector in order to fit into one of the pig tails.

yes, this mic requires phantom power. Don't know whether or not your cable requirements will work or not. This link has some more info on using xlr to 1/4 cables - http://forum.cockos.com/showthread.php?t=118204

Sure you would need a Y adapter. Like Hosa YXF-119 Dual XLR Female to XLR Male Y Cable. They both would be coming in on the same input.

Certainly. This is the cable I use. One source will play through both. Bought on amazon.GLS Audio 25 foot Mic Cable Patch Cords - XLR Male to XLR Female

The use that we've used it for is only for 2 different microphones. But I dont see why not instead is it towards 2 different outputs

You can connect it directly. That's how I've always used them. Wouldn't hurt to have an extra XLR to give yourself more space.

I believe you can. I used it to take 2 Shure microphones, placed in front of separate speakers and then mixed into a Behringer mixer. This cable was then used to feed them with them out into my Nikon DSLR. It worked. It comes through in stereo.

If you are talking about 2 audio sources this wouldn't work. you will need mixing equipment.

Technically you can't, but you might have issues with both trying to take over the same port, or the computer might read them as the same microphone. In theory I think you could with some tinkering. I've connected two microphones to my PC before but with two different microphones.

Normally you would not wire 2 output devices to a 1 input device but since the output devices are passive (I assume) mics, then they will just mix together at the computer input jack via the splitter cable. Your biggest problem will be balancing the 2 mic signals to your satisfaction since there is no control on the 2 mics.

Yes, with two caveats: The output side (which does not provide power) is still XLR and needs some method of conversion (either Blue's Icicle, or an XLR to USB cable or a mixer with XLR input and USB-out or line-out to go to your computer's input).I use this with an XLR-USB cable (Mic -> Mic Input, Mic Thru -> XLR-USB cable -> computer) and while I lose out on perfect monitoring, it records beautifully and introduces no hum on 48V phantom power. If you have a good line-in on your sound card in your computer you would probably be better off with a mixer that provides 48V phantom power and a line-out.

This cable will not do that for you. I bought this because I have 2 PC's side by side and I wanted to connect them to the same set of headphones. Your headphones with mic should have 2 separate plugs coming off of it and they would have to each be plugged into the proper holes.

You should be able to plug into both without issue... unless your audio interface doesn't have XLR input output on it.
