NETmate 2 PORT 3.5mm STEREO Manual Switch Box AUX Audio Speaker selector(Wall Mount Hole Built-in, wall or table available)

Here from Amazon.

This seems like exactly what you're talking about, then: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B073GWCRP3/ref=cm_sw_r_sms_apa_i_B5gMEbYSZN7VJ

I'm just saying, there are products like this

Windows will do what it want's anyways. It all going through software so unless you have one ONE Audio Driver you'll still run into issues from time to time regardless. HDMI\Display Port also has their own audio drivers, but you can un-install them. I suppose you might be looking for something like this:

NETmate 2 PORT 3.5mm STEREO Manual Switch Box

That might get you looking in the right direction.

You can buy something akin to this:

https://www.amazon.com/STEREO-Manual-Speaker-selector-available/dp/B073GWCRP3/ref=sr_1_2?dchild=1&keywords=3.5+mm+switch&qid=1605153787&sr=8-2

and manually switch it, it's a splitter but with buttons to choose.

Maybe those speakers you have are mono due to the outpot of the monitor? it's really weird that they have no stereo

OP says he has 1/8" (or 3.5mm, I'm assuming stereo) jacks, so right idea, wrong connector.

He's looking for this if his description is right.

If your happy with the onboard and want it vs your dp out audio to monitor and don't want another interface. Just get a 3.5mm ab switch if your not using both at the same time. https://www.amazon.com/dp/B073GWCRP3/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_fabc_zDcTFb6ZJ31SN

Like a simple switch like this?

Just use a simple 3.5mm switch.

https://www.amazon.com/STEREO-Manual-Speaker-selector-available/dp/B073GWCRP3/

Plenty of 3.5mm switches on Amazon. https://www.amazon.com/STEREO-Manual-Speaker-selector-available/dp/B073GWCRP3

i see. if you wanted you could get something like this, it wouldn’t be the most elegant solution though

Something as inexpensive as this can do what you want with the right cables. https://www.amazon.com/STEREO-Manual-Speaker-selector-available/dp/B073GWCRP3/ref=sr_1_4?dchild=1&keywords=Audio+switchers&qid=1600630045&sr=8-4

The HD 560S are not very difficult to drive. Consequently, you should try them first with your computer. If you are satisfied with how loud they can get, you don't need a headphone amp.

A 3.5mm switchbox would work

https://www.amazon.com/STEREO-Manual-Speaker-selector-available/dp/B073GWCRP3/

Get something like this

Or a common 3.5mm Y-splitter is cheapest but you might get noise depending on the quality of the outputs on your sound card and if its proper grounded/shielded since both headphones and speakers would be connected same time.

Your getting feed back because all the devices are sending current. Your not switching between but joining them or bridging them.

You need something like this https://www.amazon.com/dp/B073GWCRP3/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_i_77OdFbV6PJ7S3

Where it takes 2 inputs and let's you switch between them.

stereo switch box sounds like what you need. youll need an extra extension cable and, if you're fancy, some double sided tape to mount it underneath your desk. check out this as an example: https://www.amazon.com/STEREO-Manual-Speaker-selector-available/dp/B073GWCRP3/ref=mp_s_a_1_3?dchild=1&keywords=stereo+switch+3.5mm&qid=1608848824&sprefix=stereo+switch&sr=8-3

you are looking for something like this. there are a broad range of them, but honestly there are so many there is no way to speak to the quality of any given one without experiencing it for yourself

I think I found something!

a hardware solution would be something similar to this: amazon.com link

the software solution is baked into windows10 itself... simply change the output ; tho I personally think that can be a bit of a hassle to do every time

that said, I would prefer the/a hardware solution, but it's up to you

no need to reinvent the wheel

https://www.amazon.com/STEREO-Manual-Speaker-selector-available/dp/B073GWCRP3/

There are cheap 3.5mm switchers. Or if you want, you can get separate USB audio interface for the headset.

even a dj mixer is probably overkill tbh. you only need an audio switcher. something like this https://www.amazon.com/STEREO-Manual-Speaker-selector-available/dp/B073GWCRP3 but maybe you'll find one with RCA ports instead, I didn't search much.

you won't be listening from audio from more than one source at the time so you don't actually need something that is able to mix signals together. you could even buy your own rca plugs, a mini slide switch, and solder a DIY switcher yourself.

and if you have an old spare receiver lying around, that would do the job as well.

What about something like this? Link

I know you're in the UK, but I searched for "dual audio switch"

You need a line switcher, two 3.5mm audio jack cables to run from the switcher to the monitors, and a 3.5mm splitter with a female connector at one end and two male connectors at the other.

Edit: here's another switcher to give you a better idea what you're looking for. They're very simple devices, no power need, just 3 jacks and a way to mechanically switch some connections around. Make sure it's for 3.5mm not 6mm. It should not have a volume button.

https://www.amazon.com/STEREO-Manual-Speaker-selector-available/dp/B073GWCRP3

Something like that would work for switching things out provided you can adapt to 3.5 mm into it.

As for antennas, in my area (hilly southern Indiana) you definitely need an external antenna. I’m about 20 miles away from my local VHF repeater and could barely pick it up with my baofengs 3rd party Nagoya antenna at my house, while being outside. If I was in the car at about the same distance but higher up, to have theoretical LoS with the other, it still was hard to hit. Just adding a 1/4 wave antenna on my car made it so much more usable for me. But, you can always try as the equipment is fairly cheap.

As for a radio I would look into the entry level 2m mobiles that companies like icom, kenwood, yaesu sell. They typically range from $120 to $200 in price, a little less if you buy used (I did, would highly recommend).

As for mounting, most of those come with a bracket that you can screw into your car. I’m a bit of a prude about my car so I built a wooden mount and stuck it onto there, and leave that in my passenger seat. https://i.imgur.com/8W87tUe.jpg

Oh, most soundcards have at least two outputs. You could also get an AB switch.

Edit: Or this one: https://www.amazon.com/STEREO-Manual-Speaker-selector-available/dp/B073GWCRP3/ref=psdc_172546_t1_B079Y46M3N

I assume you don't want something like this https://www.amazon.com/STEREO-Manual-Speaker-selector-available/dp/B073GWCRP3/ but instead something that connects and mixes two audio sources at once? You may need a mixer for that like https://www.amazon.com/Maker-hart-Just-Mixer-Portable/dp/B0824Q3WY8/ I think there may be electrical issues using a splitter like https://www.amazon.com/Ancable-Stereo-Female-2-Male-Y-Splitter/dp/B01HD1HC04/ to combine two sources at once. I'm not sure though.

Nobsound Little Bear MC22 or NETmate 2 PORT to switch between computer and turntable. To connect the turntable use an RCA male to 3.5mm male cable or connect an RCA male to RCA male cable to a female RCA to male 3.5mm adapter.

Or a better Schitt Sys with 2x RCA to 3.5mm cables to connect to the computer and speakers.

First off, I love your drawing :) MSpaint skills for days...

Assuming you don't want to mod anything, here's one approach:

For the FM, Sample, and Drum, set them to MIDI channels 1, 2, and 3. On the Keystep, SHIFT + 1 switches you to MIDI channel 1 (FM), SHIFT + 2 switches you to MIDI channel 2 (Sample), and SHIFT + 3 switches you to MIDI channel 3 (Drum). You will need a MIDI splitter box for this to work, like this one:

https://www.sweetwater.com/store/detail/MIDIthru4--midi-solutions-multivoltage-quadra-thru-1-in-4-out-midi-through-box

For CV to the Modular, you could use a cheapo audio selector, like this:

https://www.amazon.com/STEREO-Manual-Speaker-selector-available/dp/B073GWCRP3

or this:

https://www.amazon.com/Nobsound-Audio-Switcher-Headphone-Selector/dp/B07CQWTZGH/ref=sr_1_18?dchild=1&keywords=3.5+mm+switch&qid=1586827043&sr=8-18

So one of the channels on the switcher would be sending CV, the other would be empty. So it is effectively an on/off switch for the CV output from the Keystep.

The more DIY route would be to cut open an 1/8" cable and wire up one side to a toggle switch, like this:

https://www.amazon.com/Gardner-Bender-GSW-18-Heavy-Duty-Electrical/dp/B00004WLKC/ref=zg_bs_306596011_1?_encoding=UTF8&psc=1&refRID=EETE806KJ28C5HX8F0KW

Again, that switch would function as an on/off for the CV output from the Keystep. BTW, you don't need to solder for this, the lineman's splice works great (google it). I think you would connect the negative wire to the switch, but you might want to double-check that. But if that's wrong, just rewire it, it won't hurt anything.

You can also mod Volcas to have a MIDI OUT, though I'm not sure if that functions as a MIDI THRU or not. This does require soldering, but is otherwise pretty easy.

I'm trying to listen to my PC headphone output and my new guitar amp headphone output with one pair of headphones for practice. All of my old guitar amps had an aux input, so I could run PC directly to my amp, then use headphones on my amp. This new amp, however, does not have the aux input for whatever reason.

I've seen other posts recommending a mixer, which I don't want to buy (I could upgrade to larger model amp for ~$30, but then I need to sell or return this amp + shipping cost). I've also heard mixed responses from users and the manufacturer about whether something like the Belkin Rockstar would be compatible with an additional audio input.

I also have a Behringer U-Phoria UM2, and I wonder if I could run two 1/8" (3.5mm) stereo cables to 1/4" jacks to input into this, and use my headphones out from the interface.

Also, would something like this work? I seen limited, mixed replies regarding its efficacy. I've also just found an audio switcher, but would prefer not to constantly switch between the PC signal and amp signal while practicing.

I'm hoping I can save the hassle and money of returning this amp and spending more for a new one, and I hope you can help help me figure out the right course of action one way or the other. Thanks.

Hallo, es hat sich jetzt doch was neues ergeben das ich um 9,90 einen amazon dot gen3 mit AUX Eingang erworben habe.

Boxen werde ich in Zukunft diese kaufen:

Swissonic ASM7

https://www.thomann.de/at/swissonic_asm7.htm

Fernseher 65 Zoll low End noch unbekanntes welches.

Wie sollte ich jetzt am besten den echo an mein Soundsystem anschliesen. Kein AVR natürlich. Brauche nicht mal eine Fernbedienung da ich nicht so oft umschalten werde würde mir ein Knopf reichen. Sowas wie einen AUX Switch ? https://www.amazon.com/STEREO-Manual-Speaker-selector-available/dp/B073GWCRP3/ref=sr_1_1?dchild=1&keywords=AUX+Switch&qid=1599482478&sr=8-1 habe leider nichts im deutschsprachrigen amazon gefunden da mir anscheinend den falschen Suchbegriff dafür verwende.

Wie würdet ihr das machen ?

LG

You didn't specify what kind of connector so I'm going to assume you're talking about normal audio line out via 3.5mm jack or RCA jack.

Also these products I'm linking are just hte first thing on Amazon I saw to give you an idea of what's out there. I'm not endorsing any of these specifically.

What you CANNOT do is use a splitter to connect the speaker to two devices e.g. https://www.amazon.com/Headphone-Splitter-Syncwire-Nylon-Braided-Stereo/dp/B07431YDWM/ This will not work because the output of one device will be feeding into the output of the other devices. The outputs are not made to be connected together and IMHO you risk damaging the devices.

What you can do is either switch, or mix the outputs.

Something like this would let you switch between outputs and you can select which device is connected. It's basically just an easier way to unplug and plug in your speakers from one device or the other: https://www.amazon.com/STEREO-Manual-Speaker-selector-available/dp/B073GWCRP3/

This is also what home stereo receivers are for. A receiver has speakers and inputs connected to it and it handles being an input selector, and amplifier, all in one. So if you already owned a receiver such as this then you'd have your speakers plugged into it, and you'd have Input 1 and Input 2 for your desktop and TV. Then you switch between them by pressing a button or using a remote control. E.g.: https://www.amazon.com/Sony-STRDH190-Stereo-Receiver-Bluetooth/dp/B078WFDR8D/

On the other hand, if you want the speakers to output audio from both devices simultaneously (e.g. the devices "share" the speakers and both can play), then you need a mixer. The mixer would let you mix and control the volume of the two input sources and mix it together into a single output you can connect the speakers to. That's a more specialized piece of equipment meant for studio recording and stuff, so that's harder to find. Here's one: https://www.amazon.com/Portable-Channel-Audio-Passive-Recording/dp/B07Y2RYHFF/
