Convert your XBox Live Headset into a PC USB Headset

Do you have an old XBox Live headset laying around? Does your local resale shop or friend have one you could acquire? Repurpose that old headset as a USB headset for Windows!

Supplies needed:

  • Xbox Live Communicator ‘Puck’ that used to fit inside of the controller
  • An old USB cable that you can cut up
  • Soldering iron
  • Xbox Headset Drivers

Optional parts if you want to make it work with a 360 headset:

  • Dremel or side cutters to remove plastic
  • Xbox360 Headset (20 dollars)

You can also use a headset for an old cell phone if you like, most 3 conductor ones will work with no modification.
