Question Inverted audio

[psychomantisyaya]

Hi so I have a problem with my headphones, I have 2 audio things I can switch to which is hands free ag audio (the one that's working properly but sounds horrible) and stereo (the one I have problem with and is really good audio) so whenever I am playing a game that needs directional audio, everything is messed up, left audio sounds from the right, right audio sounds from the left, even front and back are switched, and I am wondering how to fix it, it's with these with other headphones except the trash ones I used, hopefully it ain't just me, but any solution helps, just wondering for a way to flip the audio direction or something, thanks

From the description it could be one of two things.

1. You are wearing the headphones incorrectly with the left/right cups reversed.
2. You have some piece of software or checkbox that has inverted the left/right channels.

There's a third thing. Tell us exactly what maker and model of headset you are using. Now look closely at the metal tip of the jack on the end of its cable.

FIRST, I am assuming that the cable has only ONE jack on its end, not two. Right or not?

NEXT how many contacts are there in that jack's shaft? A common one for PC's has THREE - Tip, Ring and Sleeve - called the TRS system. But another common system used in good headsets has FOUR contacts - Tip, Ring1, Ring2, and Sleeve - called TRRS. IF you have that, it WILL fit into the sockets on your computer but make the wrong connections. In that case there's a simple adapter you can get to solve the issue, so post back here what you have.
