USB 2.0 virtual 7.1 audio adapter

This USB 2.0 external sound card replaces a failed onboard audio chip or damaged 3.5 mm jacks on a laptop or desktop. It provides two microphone inputs and two headset outputs so two people can record or listen simultaneously. Virtual 7.1 surround processing creates a 3D stereo effect for games, music, films and conference calls. The plug-and-play device works with Windows, Linux and Mac OS without driver installation.

Dual-microphone and dual-headset users

The adapter suits streamers, co-hosts or remote workers who need two independent microphone channels or want to share audio with a second headset. Buyers who require true hardware 7.1 channel output rather than software simulation should look elsewhere. Users without 3.5 mm analogue headsets or microphones will not be able to connect their gear.

Virtual 7.1 surround over USB 2.0

The single specification that decides suitability is the virtual 7.1 surround implementation over a USB 2.0 connection. It delivers software-simulated 3D audio, not discrete physical 7.1 channels, and relies on the host system USB port for power and data. Confirm that your headsets and microphones use standard 3.5 mm plugs before purchase.
