MessageIf you need independent audio in each ear with a standard low-cost boom 
mike + headphone then you need to add the following to your purchase:

1. A three:1  audio patch cable that will split out the headphone input jack to 
the three signals - right/left headphone and  mic input.

 2. a separate USB sound card to plug in the computer for your second audio 
mic/headphone processing.

Plug the other ear to the computer on-board chip and you should be good to go 
after twiddling with the default audio device for JAWS.

Dave

  Sheesh o mudda!  Is there not a headset like this where I could have jfw in 
one ear and say skype in the other for a cheaper price than that?  Most head 
sets I see are aruptly $50 to $100, and that is for a dang! good one, too!  
Granted, they won't seperate jfw from one ear to another, but I'd assume my 
point still stands, or, am I sadly mistaking.

      Yes, I have done the things you suggested. However, since there is no 
available commercial headset with different sources wired to each ear (and of 
course, if desired, a mic for phone or DJ), then you end up wiring it yourself.

      as you are aware, such a home brew device cannot stand the beating a 
headset takes and they fall apart quickly or just lose connection.

      I have also thought about stereo headphones and use asplitter of some 
sort to route two different signals to the ears. However, I cannot come up with 
the "inverted" splitter this would require. Normal splitters take one source 
and multiply the outputs, here, you would be taking a stereo speaker set and 
splitting the sides.

      Yikes! Is it any wonder I am half crazy! Anybody know a small electronics 
manufacturer to talk to???

        While i don't know what sort of device you've looked at, my sense is 
that to get JAWS in one ear and music in the other is more a function of 
sending different sources to different sides of a stereo image and less a 
function of the phones you use.  You might consider having two soundcards with 
your music coming out of one and your JAWS coming out of the other with each 
card panned hard to one side or the other.  Would that make sense?  Are you 
using a desktop or laptop for this trick?

          I have searched for such a beast for a long time. I also need a 
headset that will monitor jaws in one ear and music in the other!
          Good luck. tell me if you find it!

            I'm looking for a headset, that will enable me to listen to jaws in 
one ear and a person, on a VoIP phone) in the other ear. It must have a noise 
reduction feature.

             

            Thank you for all help!
