I like the CAD U37, for very low noise.You could also use a cheap USB audio interface if you want to plug a 3.5mm mic in.Footnotes Phone connector (audio) - Wikipedia : Plugable USB Audio Adapter with 3.5mm Speaker/Headphone and Microphone Jacks (Black Aluminum C-Media HS 100B Chip Built-In Compatibility with Windows, Mac, and Linux): Computers & Accessories The Microsoft Surface Laptop has a 'combo audio' or head set' jack, so any computer headphone + mic with 3-5 mm or 1/8″ plug should work.There are two kinds of plug wiring, so chinese phone headsets may not work.You may find a USB microphone better for desktop use, or if you don’t want to use headphones.
Is it possible?Ĭan an external microphone be used with the Surface Laptop?
I know there is a dual headphone jack splitter available but I want to do it without it.

So I was wondering if I can convert the speaker jack into a second headphone jack so 2 people can watch a movie with headphones. My laptop has 3 3.5 mm jacks, one for headphones, one for mic and one for speakers.

How to plug 2 headphones into my laptop without a jack splitter? (Most tablets will have an option to mute all sound in accessibility, make sure it's off as well as the volume is up).If none of those work, the headphone jack in your tablet might need to be replaced. Something you can try though, is going into your accessibility settings and making sure that the sound is not musted. Since oyu have not listed the make and model of the tablet I cannot offer technical assistance either. Turn the volume up, and play something (a video or music or something). If a different pair of headphones odesn't work either, then we know it's a problem with the device. Please try all of the following.First, try a different pair of headphones. There could be a lot of reasons, but without further information, a diagnosis will be difficult. My headphone is not working on my tab but it is working on my cousin phone? Why is that?

If that is so it is because safe mode loads a minumum of drivers, you will have to make sure and load your sound card driver when starting windows in safe mode. as Colanth stated if your sound is working your earphones should work, I am guessing your sound works normally but not in safe mode. How do I get my headphones to work while in safe mode? That is why this is the case.You would have to make up or purchase an adapter like the one Arno Brevoort mentions to pull this fourth contact and the ground to another plug for the pink (microphone) port on your computer. You might have noticed that plugging the headset into the microphone port, you may get a bit of crude audio by shouting into the actual headphones. Unfortunately, the pink microphone port is wired on a computer the same way as a headphone port, making the assumption that you are using a three pin connector, so there is no accommodation for the separate third and fourth pin. This is why the headphone portion still works. Notice the difference between the two connectors in this picture. The computer has no fourth connection for the microphone, so it doesn't go anywhere. So, when you plug in this four pin connector, left and right headphones both work, but the two other connections are shorted together, serving as the ground for both headphones. On a three pin headphone plug, the rest of the connector is one big contact. Notice that the plug on your headset has four contacts instead of the common three, but the first two, (the tip and the first ring,) are exactly where they would be on a regular, three pin headphone plug.The tip and first ring are the two signals for your left and right headphones. Plugged into the green port, you can still use the headphones because of the pin configuration of the plug. The computer likely has a separate input (often pink colored) that receives the incoming sound from the microphone. It is shorted to ground.You computer has an output (the green plug) that sends audio into your headphones. Why doesn't my headphone's mic work when I plug in the speaker(green port)?
