Related Questions and Answers

Q: 1. Would this work to connect a shotgun mic to an android smartphone, and at the same time monitor it with headphones?

A: The StarTech Headset Adapter will turn a 3.5mm audio output port into two distinct ports – one 3.5mm headphone jack and one 3.5mm microphone port, so if your shotgun mic and your headphones have a 3.5 mm input this will work fine.

Q: 2. Will this work with a fujifilm x100v camera? I want to record and monitor audio using a Rhode mic and Senal headphones. I have an adapter to plug the StarTech into the camera's audio mic port.

A: No, the StarTech Headset Adapter will not work as desired with the FUJIFILM X100V Digital Camera. This adapter works with a TRRS input/output connection that is capable of sending signal in both directions simultaneously, commonly found on smartphone and some computer headset connections. The 2.5mm microphone input connection on the X100V is an input only, and will not also send output signal to be monitored via headphones. It is suggested to use the microphone input and headphone output connections of the X100V independently in this scenario.

Q: 3. Will this work for people that have hearing aids/cochlear implants?

A: The Listen Technologies Listen Everywhere 4-Channel Server BH #LILW200P0401 can work with these devices as the listener connects via a mobile app on their phones. If the listener can use headphones then they are all set.

Q: 4. Does this work on a macbook air?

Q: 5. Can wireless keyboard and mouse be used with a pc laptop and mac mini and studio display setup?

A: Yes, as long as the wireless mouse and keyboard are using USB wireless receivers. If they are connected via bluetooth, you will need to change the connection over to the second computer manually.

Q: 6. Does this board work with led pars

A: This can be used for LED Pars but is not ideal for them as each fader will access one feature of the LED par so depending on the channel mode you can burn through channels quickly. If you have several pars set to the same dmx channel and can get by with 48 channels than this will work for you.A better option for LED pars is the RGB3C IR or the RGBW 4C IR as there are presets and built in programs. These are specifically built for LED pars.Another option would be something like the DMX operator series or the Show designer 1 if you wanted run scenes and programs that you have created, but not adjust colors on the fly (as this can be cumbersome with this option).

Q: 7. If I wanted to assign different flight sim functions to the keys would this allow me to do it at the moment it’s combination key strokes so having different keys to carry out different functions would be great. Thanks

Q: 9. Can i use this for a rode microphone and a headset on a canon t4i dslr?

Q: 10. Hi there;) Is this a viable option for monitoring audio while shooting video on my mirrorless camera? Thanks for any feedback!
