I've seen Xbox Live mics for less than this.

Yeah and probably an absolutly terrible one.

Pretty sweet product tbh, would be win connecting a set of PC 350s on them.

But its not just the microphone, its so you can use a high end headset (sound + voice) without having to buy a specialist Xbox 360 one which saves you a lot of money.

Was only messing guys. Just thought I'd join in the usual camaraderie of bashing OcUK's latest and greatest products.

How will I get in-game sound with this?

Lol had me going! Good little product though

It plugs into your controller and then you connect your headset to it. So its like the official Microsoft ones but in a different format

 

[Clown]

The official Microsoft ones don't have in-game sound and just voice chat on it...
I was more addressing NathWraith - what's the point of plugging in £100 quid headphones just for voice chat?

Sorry mistake, no ingame sounds it is just the microphone Blank moment

Guessing this wont work my 5.1 medusas ?

Guys you will need a mixamp to use a product like this. The mixamp will enable the in game sounds which you plug your own headphones into. This plugs into the back of your xbox or at least plugs into the phono sockets or optical out and then this thing is purely for voice chat I believe.

They are the sweetest headset I have worn.

 

[mattjd]

So do you plug in your Headset into the Xbox/TV and the mic plug into this adaptor?

 

[Clown]

Comfort

Cool, you can edit your posts without it saying so
As long as you're happy with blocking out the game sound in favour of random American kiddies talking rubbish!

Nope but that's a good thing because Medusas are ****

If you're going for a 5.1 or 7.1 headset it has to be virtual, not this putting extra drivers in the headset malarkey. The effect is garbage that way.

 

[Dreadi]

Wouldn't know, owned them about 2 years and used them maybe once

Well...... this thing has allowed me to get game audio and voice without spending any extra money.. but it wasn't very easy to set up!

But as i use my pc for recording stuff with Cubase I had the bits and pieces required.

Headphones are my old trusty Bose QC2's, mic.. a Shure SM57
Connected via a Soundcraft mixing desk.
