hi I couldn't find a 1 female to 2 male splitter, all the ones i found had a mic male and the other male had audio.could you reply with a link for the right one
From the picture that he posted in the video, there's 1 Male mic and 1 Male audio so I'm going to assume that it should just work. If I'm wrong, hopefully he replies so we can figure out what we need.

Hey it's a little more complicated than I originally thought but this video should be able to answer your question. ua-cam.com/video/qYfVIM_acAA/v-deo.html Hopefully this helps :)
I subscribed. Thanks, Quarrel didn’t look legit.. so I didn’t want to enter my information into that. This helps a lot. And great job on great content. What I mean by this, is that you act like you have a million subs with just around 220. I respect that big time, great job! 👍
So with the Astro a20s can the microphone still work on both ends if you have that setup? Or can it only work like on the PC and then you have to switch to Xbox for it to work on the Xbox
The astro20 headset that I have only has a micro USB port for charging on it. How could a male to 2 female adapter work with that, when a 3.5mm port is at the receiving end of it?
so the usb-A port that you normally plug into your console should be plugged into your computer and then you have to switch the dial from xbox/ps4 - pc
you should put a disclaimer that the wireless setup requires a headset that uses that type of hardware to connect to the console/pc. I use steel series for example, and there's a usb-c transmitter. how would I use that to connect to both devices at the same time?
this video breaks it down better than I did. The issue was a little more complicated than I originally thought. ua-cam.com/video/qYfVIM_acAA/v-deo.html
i figured it out you have to put one male into your monitor and one into your laptop and then the female into headphones but then put your monitor on max volume and it should work
Hey this video helped me a ton! Question? What capture card do you use or whatever the device you used to plug into your MacBook I am EXTREMELY interested because I will be streaming from a MacBook.
So with this method, whoever you play with would have to have a laptop, 1/8” splitter, and follow the same process? I am happy to do it for myself but I doubt the guys I play with would 😂
You solved the wireless problem but the wired it's still an issue even with ur explanation. The splitter you showed its just because some headsets have both mic and headphones in one plug so that splitter would be required if it is to plug into 2 seperate female ports (1 for mic and one for headphones).
Yeah that could work if you are able to use a splitter, I know some people have had troubles doing it that way though. There’s a vid I linked in the description I believe (or pinned comment) that explains that way more in depth
When I made this consoles had a digital audio port, I don’t have a PS5 so I can’t confirm if they have it or not but someone else was saying it didn’t. Basically though if you can get audio from two places that’s the goal
I made it possible to get my PS5 audio in my headset using a Usb Soundcard. but I just can't connect my Mic to my Ps. so my friends who are using ps Chat cant hear me unless I use the mic of my controller. But that quality is pretty bad. do you think If I would setup my astro A40 like you. will it connect the mic of the A40 to my PS and still hear my pc an PS audio in my headset ?
As you mentioned in 1:50 that we can connect headset to both console and pc but in that splitter it is showing that 1 is for audio and 1 is for mic . So will it work??
Do you think this would work the same through the Xbox App on my PC? My friends are on Xbox but I’m on PS5 and I wasn’t sure if it would work the same way. Game chat for Apex Legends is garbage
@@Randeezus correct , im on p c i could have discord up i guess , my friends will need to have discord running on their pc ? ( thyre on on ps5 ) I just came to pc like a month ago and i really cant beleive how crazy it is to get cross platform (chat )to work . ( having lazy ass fiends doesn’t help either lol )
@@peupeuguy310 haha yeah i feel you. Discord while you're playing is super easy, pretty much everyone on pc uses discord. as for your friends yeah they'll have to do that or use their phones for discord and wear two headsets. which is not only difficult but hurts the ears a little lol
@@Randeezus lmaoo tell me about it , i did that yesterday with the psn app . ( Still hurting from the ear buds ) Dont want to to pay that monthly PSN just to have a chat working. Got to find another way because theres no way these guys are doing the discord way .

Hey! Can anyone help! I’ve recently started streaming Warzone. I play solely on PC, but my friends play on PS5 and XBOX. but when we are in game I can hear them but my stream can’t. Is there anyway to fix this? I’ve looked everything. Any help would be appreciated
That’s weird. My stream can hear gamechat. Maybe check audio settings in game to make sure they’re coming through to desktop audio as opposed to headphone audio
@@Randeezus I should clarify. I haven’t got a capture card like an elgato or anything. I just use streamlabs OBS. When you say audio settings, do you mean on my PC or in Warzone?
Hold up... so hypothetically if I bought like the a40’s, I could be in discord and hear my boys in game chat on xbox? Or would they still have to join the cord?
hey man, if you are playing xbox you might be able to hear party chat (I know you can hear game chat), but they won't be able to hear you. Only your discord will be able able to take your mic volume. Theres a possibility if you have a hard wire (2 male, 1 female) from your a40 receiver to both your xbox and your computer but i don't know. Also your second comment shouldn't be an issue, i use an elgato as well. And when i stream im able to include discord as a separate audio track because it's not from the xbox which is nice.
@@Randeezus cool thanks anyway, been trying to figure out a way my twitch community can here my friends I play with cross platform wise as well for the longest, still gonna be awhile before I build a pc so i can do it , but again thanks for responding
so you can hear game audio and computer audio? does this mean you would speak through your xbox or your discord? or both? im looking to use these to talk on discord with my friends while i am able to hear footsteps in game.
Sorry, I'm confused. There are 2 female jacks & 1 male jack in the splitter. But between the laptop, Xbox controller & headset.....you would require 2 male jacks (for the laptop & Xbox controller) & 1 female jack (for the headset). Am I missing something....please advise.
I stream on twitch through Xbox. Would I be able to plug in a microphone and do this as well? I have xlr cables for the microphone but to plug that in I would need 2 males to one female. Would I have to have multiple splitters to do so?
Great video.. I'm subscribing but my problem is that my buddy doesn't have a pc. I'm wondering if the splitter can some how be plugged into his phone for sound and voice and he just gets volume from the xbox. 🤔
This is the wireless receiver I got when I bought my Astro A20's. If you have a wireless receiver you can most likely plug in into both your console and your pc at the same time.

It is legit, just not very dependable when you need it the most it seems...
Is it possible with discord on phone and xbox?
0:40 which we both know is perfectly fine and works without issue....IF the game actually HAS game chat.
does this work with an xbox series S?
So with the Astro a20s can the microphone still work on both ends if you have that setup? Or can it only work like on the PC and then you have to switch to Xbox for it to work on the Xbox
it only works for the pc when you have it hooked up over there

Can this work off your phone ? Not just a PC
does this work from imac to ps5?
It should!
Do you know how to fix when I connect my ps5 controller to pc and use headset I can’t hear people on discord
you should put a disclaimer that the wireless setup requires a headset that uses that type of hardware to connect to the console/pc. I use steel series for example, and there's a usb-c transmitter. how would I use that to connect to both devices at the same time?
Is there a way to get discord overlay on apple
Can I connect the thing to my phone and do the same?
possibly! theres a video i linked in the description that may give a better answer
Would the splitter work if Someone uses discord on their phone ?
Honestly I'm not sure, i know this comment was a while ago but i hope you found your answer!
How the female to 2 male splitter supposed to work im holding my controller its not next to the pc headphone port
So the splitter method is a little more difficult than I originally though, I pinned a comment with a video that explains it much better than I did
Does this work if I use a mobile instead of a pc??? Plz answer
Not sure, I haven’t tried but in theory it should work
@@Randeezus OK thanks. BTW you're a great youtuber. I subbed
Thanks man!
i’m plugging the 2 male into my controller and my computer and the headset into the female but can only seem to get volume from one of the male inputs

so like i don't have those box things on my xbox and i'm working on a laptop. like what do i get
So if I get the splitter I can hear audio form both ends ? If so I can finally use discord
so do you need an optical splitter for tis?
I got a usb headset that charges it’s wireless how would I do that to use discord & ps4 at the same time ?.
Can you plug it into your computer and hear your ps4?

PS4 just needs to go ahead and move to discord
Agreed, it should come standard on all next gen platforms
If my friend had a computer, he'd just game on his computer.
This won't work with the new Xbox Series X because the new console does not have an optical out
So Astro will be selling a USB transmitter for the series x so you can use your existing headset. They also are selling an upgraded set of a20’s
Does it work if I stream it
off your console no, but you can make your computer record it from obs
This is a dope vid but I was hoping to find a way without a pc because I don't have one for now :(

Do u need a computer/laptop
for this specific example yes. If you have an xbox you can try and download the app Quattro in the Xbox Store but I found it to be extremely buggy
I have a PS4 I am so confused
assuming you have a receiver for your wireless headset it should be the same
Do you need an amp mixer for the A40’s?
Yes, if they are wired you might get away with using the aux splitter
can you do us a favor and ewxplain what ur set up is? wtf are these devices you got going on? geeez
Yeah usb headset so that won’t work
If only if it was for sure to be on xbox without pc.
