I right now have a great USB headset and a speaker for my computer. I am using Vista Home Premium 32-bit and am wondering if anyone could give me a tutorial regarding how to set the sound from flightsim out of my speakers and the vatsim atc through my headset. using fsinn.

Gene,

 

This is done from the FSFDT Control Panel (The traffic signal looking thing in your status bar at the bottom of the screen).

 

Right click the traffic signal and select "show"

 

Left Click "Voice" and then Left Click "VATSIM"

 

You will see a status box for "VATSIM VOICE" showing your connections for your Microphone, Headset, and Speakers. Set the Mike and headset to your USB Headset in the drop down menu boxes. I left Speakers at "None"

 

That's all I did and my headset handles on Pilot/ATC voice and all FS9 sounds come through system speakers, not the headset.

Alrighty then. But the regular fsx sounds usually come out of my headset, is there any way to stick that over to my speakers?

From FSX go to: Options -> Sound -> (Select the Sounds/Voice output device from the Windows Sound Devices dropdown... in your case select the Speakers device).

For FSInn/VATSIM issues, please test the FSInn Installation sticky and linked FAQ. It really works!
