I use this with my iPhone & Olympus recorder. Need to use a headset over the pickup for long 3-way calls. Suggestions?

I insert the pickup mic in my ear and then put my headset on over it, no problem. It picks up both ends of the conversation.

I'm not sure I understand your question. I often put my phone on speakerphone and just put the TP-8 microphone near the phone's speaker. This way, I don't have to hold the phone to my ear with the TP-8 in my ear canal.

I got this strictly for plugging in a headset with mic to give me more walk around area while chatting. I have not used it for anything else. As for iPhone, the connections on this will not fit an iPhone . It has the standard USB connector. So probably check with the manufacturer.

Supposedly multiple calls can be handled. However, I have not had success in doing so. I have an iPhone that is finicky at best. Every time I try to hang up one call to return to another it hangs up both. Headset or phone? I don,t know.

I still like this headset very much. I use it with my iPhone so it should work as is or with an adapter from 3.5 to 2.5 (or vice versa).

I purchase this as a gift. The recipient was not able to use it with her iPhone. I purchased a GE Universal all-in-one headset as a replacement which worked fine. Amazon also has the 98974 available. The reviews say this works fine with iPhone and that it comes with a 2.5mm adaptor. It would be helpful if Amazon updated the 98974 description to mention that the product includes the adaptors.

I've been on a call that lasted a continuous 5 hours with no issue. Putting the headset on the charging station does end a call for me (I'm using this with Microsoft Lync).

The wide range of pickup shouldn't interfere with VR software since anything speaking nearby is quite clear and the mic does a good job of separating background noise from foreground speech. Should work with XP, although I haven't tried it. Honestly I don't see any reason why it wouldn't since it just uses the Microsoft drivers, you don't have to install any software, just plug and play. The mic will pick up as long as the software is asking for it, so if your VR software is always running, then no it won't turn off. As long as it's plugged in and some kind of software that would use it is running, it's listening for you. However if no software is active nothing will happen. Standard for a USB microphone.

If you want to use the stereo analogue input on the transmitter and also have chat functions, you need to use the transmitter's chat-out or mini-USB port to output voice. Of course, you'd need some kind of splitter to set that up with a phone. The 3-ring cable is actually for connecting the headset directly to your phone, in which case it acts like a standard wired headset (without needing to be powered on) and your phone should work with the headset's mic.

I use this Mic on my iPod Touch 4. It works quite well it is not directional so it will pick up almost everything. I record sermons at church for later listening. It works wonderfully.

I believe you can get a VOX headset, which will allow you to voice activate the pickup of the mic.

In order to use the microphone, it has pick up noise ... If you want to use the phone connection, then you don't want to keep it in the console

It's an older technology that wasn't made to support the current devices we have now. It was better suited for the phones from 2006-2008. You would be better off just getting a different headset. I also found this out the hard way. Sorry to be the bearer of bad news.

I have a Plantronics headset with mic and it has worked fine for me; though I have only used it for Go To Meeting calls.

It should work just fine. The microphone pickup quality is very good so dictation should come across nice and clear.

I use this to listen to podcasts. I have a small utility on my WM5 phone that transfers speaker audio to the headset. This happens to me when I am listening to a podcast and then when a phone call comes. The caller is not able to listen to my voice at all. All other times it works pretty well.
