For Mac yes with the stock driver. For pc yes, but you may need to map the signal using some 3rd party applications.

Yes, i can use this with S Voice. Sometimes the S Voice doesn't pick up the command, so you might need to speak clearly into the device.

I honestly am not sure how that would work, especially if you are using the dragon headset... If the Dragon software is built-in into your computer's microphone, then maybe with some tinkering it may work; but I'm not sure it would because Dragon as I have seen uses a headset by itself.... It may be really beneficial to get in contact with Dragon, and see if they can work something out for you... If you just want to use the Creative Sound headset by itself outside of Dragon, it should work like a charm! It basically downloads by itself when you use the THX USB. I had to go to the main site to find the control panel, but once I did I haven't had any hiccups (truly a small hiccup, nothing major) since and that's been nearly 6 months. It's a really good headset in my opinion. I hope this helps some.

This will require a little complex instrument setup and a 2nd computer/laptop dedicated for Skype. From my personal experience the person over Skype will hear you OK but if you want to send over other sounds such from other input (music, effects, etc), the quality will not be the best. For avoiding his own sound to return to him, you will have to use preamp setup for the output channel. On the primary pc, you can record all you do on the mixer and monitor via audacity or alike software very simply. Hope this helps

Yes, I have used this very setup on a Skype call. Just make sure Skype is configured to use the Shure mic and headphones for output.

Yes you can if you are using it for audio from your pc to the recever using the proper connector cords.

Yes, you can. I actually have done it several times. As long as you have a Mic input in your PC there shouldn't be any problem.

I recommend this if you would like to connect the headset to USB: SYBA external USB Stereo Sound Adapter for Windows, Mac, Linux Extra Audio Source with Microphone SD-CM-UAUD

I dont believe it can control the volume output from the computer - this is a wired connection, not bluetooth. My headset does not have a volume control on it. If your wired headset has volume control, then it should work on its own regardless of the dongle.

no, you would need to set up a separate voice recording solution through your PC, as the component cable on the Turtle Beach headsets is only Audio in not out

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".

no you can't. I bought it myself for this exact purpose...it is only an audio out port.

It can be done through the windows audio.... Speakers and headset on at the same time..But the wires broke the first week and is now garbage...

Since your Audio port supports audio and voice when you plug something into it, this feature of the headset becomes a disadvantage. To answer your question, you will not be able to use both microphone and audio at the same time unless you buy an audio jack that can support both pathways. You can also buy this off of Amazon. Here is a link for one that is fairly cheap and has what you need and nothing more to it: SYBA external USB Stereo Sound Adapter for Windows, Mac, Linux Extra Audio Source with Microphone SD-CM-UAUD I hope that you will look forward to using this if you buy it!

Of course you can. I have one doing just that. It's the least expensive way to game chat using your old computer headset.

If you have a bluetooth receiver on your laptop, then yes. You would pair this as a microphone and then select it as the input audio inside Skype's options.

The wide range of pickup shouldn't interfere with VR software since anything speaking nearby is quite clear and the mic does a good job of separating background noise from foreground speech. Should work with XP, although I haven't tried it. Honestly I don't see any reason why it wouldn't since it just uses the Microsoft drivers, you don't have to install any software, just plug and play. The mic will pick up as long as the software is asking for it, so if your VR software is always running, then no it won't turn off. As long as it's plugged in and some kind of software that would use it is running, it's listening for you. However if no software is active nothing will happen. Standard for a USB microphone.
