It may also be that your headset's microphone is defective If it's already maxed to 100 or the volume of the mic is still too low, then you probably need a different connector. Then switch to the levels tab and see if you can raise the levels slider or number any higher. Right click on where your headset's microphone is listed and then click properties. You'll want to right click the speakers icon on your computer and then either click on recording devices or sounds then switch to the recording tab on the window that pops up.
#Do i need an audio splitter for pc full#
To have full functionality of 2 ear stereo headset, then you would've needed a cable with a female TRRS connector, otherwise a 1 ear headset might work fully with a cable like the one you of the mic could be affected by an improper connector. But a 1 ear headset just might use a TRS connector. Saying it was a Turtle Beach Headset wasn't specific enough. Headsets that have a speaker for each ear instead of just one ear, typically have a TRRS connector so that it has stereo audio. I think the issue here is whether your headset was made to have stereo audio or if it's just a 1 ear headset with just 1 chanel or mono audio. The splitter I have, with TRS plugs - works! Once I plugged it into the mobo opposed to the front I/O panel, it works. You are wrong in insisting that it needed to be TRRS.

Although the splitter I have says they are TRS plugs, they say they are specifically for a headset/microphone combo. Information was incorrect and mislead you? you insisted that I need a TRRS plug for it to work, and I'm telling you that is not true.
