I just purchased a headset recommended by FSX and it works great but I had a question. I am wanting to multiplayer with others but I am not sure how to set it up in the settings. I have 5.1 surround sound and now I got the headset but when flyers are talking, I don't hear them from the headset only my center speaker. How do I get the talking in my headset?

Thanks

Jetman

Correct me if I am mistaken, but the key to press is "CapsLock" to talk and not "Ctrl".....

You can set any button you wish to press to talk.

Unplug your speaker and plug the green lead of the headset in.

Trick is.. in your sound settings in fsx, turn up voices to 100%, turn down everything else to 15%-20%, turn up main volume to desired level.
Or...did you mean they all sound like Barry White/James Earl Jones (Darth vader)? Laughing

Make sure your PC volume control is up, or headset audio is too. Test it with sound recorder.
