Questions & Answers

What is the compatibility of this device with an Xbox One ?

The answer is yes! The sound quality is outstanding and my friends, fellow gamers, report crystal clear sound during chat. Similarly, I do not experience any brief static as noted in my previous post. 1995) to make it work, I plugged everything in its place and it worked flawlessly. This product is an excellent choice and comes with both a low price and excellent performance.

The adapter is compatible with the iPhone 4S, but will it work with it? These are the rest of my three. I have an iPhone that will not work with 5 mm plugs due to Apple's desire to have a purely Apple product. ?

My iPhone 5c works fine with the "R*DE Rec" app. I'm not sure about your iPhone 4s, but I can confirm that my iPhone 5c works perfectly fine with In the beginning, it did not work, but that was because I had turned off "Playthrough" under "Input". As soon as I turned that on, it started working perfectly, both before and after I started Although I cannot use Voice Memos with Apple's app, I can make and play sounds using the app.

Does PS4 exist?

In the papers included with this adapter, it is clearly stated Prior to connecting male TRRS to the controller/phone/receiver, you MUST first connect the headphones and mic. When it is connected to the controller first and the mic and headphones are added second, the system fails to detect the peripherals.

The adapter has obvious advantages over the cable, but what disadvantages does it have?

The small adapter was more suitable to my needs than a coaxial cable since I thought it would meet my needs well. It wouldn't be practical for me to add extra length to my desk since it has little space.

A microphone connected to this Y should work just fine on Android
5/5

There is a note in the Android spec that LRGM ordering (from tip) is REQUIRED, and that LRMG ordering is optional but is also necessary to implement a Headset Detection sequence. We are documenting this on have the item and we determined what connections were by plugging a TRS male to male cable into the mic/headphone The following continuity measurements were performed using the following labels on the plug TRRS (tip, first ring, second ring, and shield).

In general, StarTech cables have been reliable and well-made, and this one is no exception. Thanks for the tip, I hope it.

Does not work with an independent microphone connected to a Macbook Air
3/5

With the Apple Macbook Air and an independent microphone, the microphone port does not work. You can find out more about TRRS, CTIA, or OMTP by looking them up. What a bizarre design decision Apple made to use the outside shield as the microphone input and the ground inside on the next ring. By looking at her, it is impossible to tell. The connector does not have a ground connection, so if you are just plugging in an independent microphone, this does not work. Assume that the ground connection for the headset comes from the ground of the headphones. Also, on the microphone side, it assumes that the tip of the female microphone connector maps to the Sleeve, as per the CTIA standard. But it doesn't. It is not possible to use it by itself if the ground is not mapped to Ring 2 on the microphone connector. The ground point between the microphone and the amplifier should therefore be connected correctly for CTIA, and this should be stamped on the product This agency. If you want to continue using the device with your gaming headset, make sure you first connect the mic and headphones to the adapter before connecting them to the computer. Seeing the mic only happens when it is pointed at the camera. Unfortunately, I did not like the quality of the mic input. Obviously, Startek is not to blame for all this. The whole thing is incredibly frustration.

I'm not able to use the microphone port
3/5

It came with the new Xbox One controller with 3 buttons. I purchased it to use with the new controller. Connect the 5mm jack to a computer. While the microphone worked when plugged into a laptop, and a different headset (that did not require the adapter) worked when plugged into the controller, it didn't work for the microphone. In the process of deciding if I should get a new adapter or give this another try. Should I attempt to use this again, I will update this post. It seems Amazon listed this as an item that is not eligible for return for some reason. I was able to get my money back after I contacted.

Compatible with Macs and iPhones of recent versions This Phantom Power 5V adapter works with Phantom Power
5/5

A Sennheiser PC 37X headset I purchased is compatible with this adapter. My headset does not supply 5V power, but it does require a Phantom Plug to operate. Also, I was unaware that there is any type of power other than 48V phantom and that most devices will drive the microphones with 5V from the device. As I have been using an adapter with my MacBook and iPhone, it has worked flawlessly. There is no battery in the microphone whenever I connect it to an input which does not have phantom power. If the microphone was working with this adapter, then the adapter must have been sending 5V phantom power to the device. I read that some adapters aren't compatible with Macs or iPhones. There is a good chance that this model can do that! The Sennheiser PCV 07 is one of the few adapters that did what I needed from a trusted brand. If you find this review while searching for Sennheiser PCV 07, you have come to the right place. As an alternative, here is what you can do.

The 6 bucks I had to spend weren't enough for it to I would give the film three stars on the whole
3/5

In attempting to use my Plantronics headset/mic (separate jacks for the headphone and mic) with the Google Nexus 5X phone, it did not work. It would have been nice if that information had been included in Amazon's information about the product. At any rate, I also learned that my Nexus 5X phone is compliant with the other standard, called "OMTP. ". In my search for this converter, I found this other easy adapter that goes from It was a simple process of plugging my mic plug into the adapter and then the StarTech Y adapter to it. In order to use the Y adapter, the headphone plug needs to be directly connected. I spent an extra $5, so the bottom line is I had to pay I had to spend $90 to make this StarTech adapter work as it was intended. You can see how it looks on the headset cords in the attached photo.
