Need some help regarding headset configuration

Postby CDreier » Fri Nov 13, 2009 11:22 am

I'm running FSX with Squawkbox4.  I am trying to configure my sound so that aircraft sounds will come out of the speakers and ATC will come out of the headset.  I have SB4 configured for the headset (xmit & receive) but I can only get sound one of 2 ways.  Either everything through the speakers or everything through the headset - I can't get the two "split".   Is this possible to do.  Am I doing something wrong in the setup.  Thoughts and help are appreciated as always!
My Specs:
i7 920 oc'd to 3.8
6gb Corsair RAM
ASUS P6T Deluxe v2,
EVGA 275GTX
1TB WD 7200/32 Black

Samsung 22" 1680x1050 LCD
Corsair 800D case
Windows 7 64-bit

I don't have SB4, but I had the same problems.

Supposedly you are supposed to configure your sound cards with the "Sound" option in the "Control Panel" There's an option there that I don't have.

Here is an extract from

OK, I finally figured it out... of course you'll need two sound cards.

But as far as SB4??? I'm not sure on that

I don't know if this helps, looks to me I could configure ONE sound card to split sounds  :-/
