Sound question

Recommended Posts

I've installed SB on a networked computer, and have plugged my headphones and mic into the client.

Thing is, I don't like being deaf to the engine, etc. sounds of the PC running FSX.

Does anyone use some sort of setup to have both SB and the FSX sounds coming into a single headset?

Ive been reading around the Web and there seems to be some divisiveness about which setup works best, ie line-in to line-out, Y-connector (which is universally panned as dangerous to the soundcards), mixers, etc.

Thanks in advance

Oh, never mind. FIgured it out. Can't believe I couldn't handle such an elementary problem.

All I had to do was grab a cable with two male ends and plug one end in the speaker out on my laptop and the other into the line-in of the SB computer. Headset and mic plugged into SB computer. Voila, both FSX and SB on same headset. A big DUH Award for me.
