- MiddleMan5 3y agoFor simple audio devices, maybe with a hardware revision, but it's unlikely the driver circuitry would be routed back to an analog sensing pin unless you were doing some closed loop feedback stuff
- sudosysgen 3y agoIIRC some Realtek cards did have the hardware to route it that way.
- rrrrrrrrrrrryan 3y agoI mean you can literally plug a regular pair of headphones into a microphone port instead of a speaker port, then yell into them, and it'll record your voice. But yes the Google buds are Bluetooth and use separate microphones to send recorded audio back to the device for voice calls, etc.
- IshKebab 3y agoA speaker is a microphone in the same way that a bicycle is a motorbike.
- jdjdjdhhd 3y agoYou don't need any mods to make a speaker act as a microphone... Just like an LED doesn't need any mods to be a light sensor
- ace2358 3y agoNot to the driver/microphone, but you do need to mod the circuitry it was attached to. And amplifier isn’t magically pre-amp.
- AlecSchueler 3y agoI've tried it many times with many kinds of headphobes and it was always plug and play without any modifications.
- jdjdjdhhd 3y agoSame with an alternator... Pretty sure it can be used both ways... The circuit can do both if designed right... That's childs play
- amerkhalid 3y agoWhen we were kids, it was common knowledge and cheaper to use headphones as a mic. Just plug headphones into mic jack and they work as mic.
- thomastjeffery 3y agoThe idea is to use both the speaker and the microphone at the same time. I'm not aware of anyone doing that with a single electromagnet and 2 wires.
