I would like to use my microphone (Rode nt-1a) on my Ps4. I've already watched a few tutorials, but it still doesn't work. As already mentioned, I have a Rode Nt-1a, I also have a Focusrite scarlett Solo and a Behringer xenyx 802, a headset (Razer Kraken Pro) I also have what I would like to use as headphones. If necessary, I could also connect it with a PC.
So how do I connect the microphone with the Focusrite or The Behringer to the PlayStation?
Micro into the Focusrite, Focusrite via USB to the Playstation, headphones into the Focusrite. Switch on Phantom Power on the Focusrite 48V and actually I think it should work.
No, that doesn't work because the Ps4 doesn't recognize the microphone.
You have to change that via the optical out, connect the mic via usb to the ps4 and then connect the headset via optical if necessary with an optical to aux adapter. I also have the HyperX Quadcast via usb and my beyerdynamic dt 990 pro via optical with mine sorroundsound boxes via optical with a mixer connected to the boxes via aux… Sounds complicated but another method is not (or would not be more useful) because the ps4 only recognizes the microphone itself or the headphones themselves unless you choose that one as tv (hdmi) or optical and the other ala microphone. Then in the end you would have to try to insert the Focusrite amplifier with a usb plug into the ps4 and the hwadset then said via optical
