Can I combine the 2 outputs using a 1/4" TS to 1/8" TRS Y adapter and feed the USB + input mix back to the PC line or mic in to record it?

Yeah, I guess, but it seems overly complicated, and unnecessary. I'll assume you want to track both the USB signal, and once you go through all that stereo adapter business, your gonna run it into the computers headphone/mic input? Then you have to convince your computer to record both the USB signal, and the now degraded signal coming from the 1/4" TS to 1/8" TRS Y adapter input simultaneously. If you can do it than you can do it but why not simply duplicate the stereo USB tracks in your DAW?

I have not tried that but I highly doubt that it will work for computer out to mixing board since it is designed for mixer out to computer. What you need is something like a Peavey USB-P which is usb out of a computer to a box that gives you a left and right transformer isolated xlr out. That is the best way to not only hook up the output of your computer but also to help eliminate any unwanted noise.

There is only 1 XLR input, The other inputs would require a mic pre-amp unless your mics can generate a line level signal (some do)

Only if you have a USB "audio interface" to go between the computer and mixer

USB output port to connect to the computer (like the digital camera) and the 1/8 inch for headphones

I'm an electronic tech by trade. You normally would not tie together outputs but in this case I think for your application, it will work ok. If the mics were powered mics then there would be a concern but since they are passive devices, the output signals will simply be mixed together then fed to your computer mic input.

Yes, make sure you select it as your default audio output with the USB dongle. If not you can buy a cable where you connect the red&white plugs into it and it comes out as a dual 3.5mm output for audio and input for microphone.

You might want to invest in a USB mixing board. Then you plug your mic into this unit, plug the output into the mixing board and then connect the mixing board to your computer.

here's something that may suit your needs: a double mic channel audio card.. Vafru USB to 3D External Sound Card Audio Adapter Virtual 7.1 Channel CH Sound Mic Speaker Double Adaprter

This is a standard xlr connector on mic. Standard xlr cables will work. If you need a 1/4" input you can get a xlr to 1/4" adapter/transformer which will impedence match the 2 connections.

It works only with one. if you have two mics hooked on each it XLR will be the one active (the TRS signal is so low that is kind of useless). I guess the Y would also compromise the quality signal too. Better look for another solution that supports 2 mics

HiRE an audio and Mic jack, I do not think this is the adapter you need. Both the male and female connectors are TRRS. (Tip Ring1 Ring2 Sleeve) It passes stereo and mic signal and is essentially just a 90 for input and output. If you use just a TRS (Tip Ring Sleeve) Stereo In you have only Stereo Out.You can certainly plug it into either a stereo and mic (TRRS) or just stereo (TRS) but output will only be what you put in to it.Hope that helps

You would have to cut one end off, unthread it, and you would not be able to but it back from what I can see. Then you are going to have to tether the replacement mic wire with ties. Best to look for an alternative or just get some velcro ties or equivalent to tether is so it will not accidentally move and add noise to a recording. I did this using a USB Blue Yeti for a while. You have a mound of XLR sitting on the desk unused. But since I have gone back to a XLR mic.

I recommend you don't do this if the two inputs are used at the same time. This will cause a degradation of the sound from both of them due to patial signal cancellation. To do this, you need a combiner such as a Pro AV2. However, this device uses 1/4" inputs to a single 1/4" out but it properly combines the two signals. "Y" connectors such as the one you've asked about are designed as splitters; not combiners.

I have a Tascam with 2 XLR ins. When I run 2 mics I just plug them both in. If I am only using one mic, then I use this to ensure I don't get a channel of hiss. So this appears to be the opposite of what you want. This is a single in for a double out.

You're best bet is to get an XLR mic and an XLR - 1/4" adapter. I did a short search for USB - 1/4" adapter and only found the opposite...

Not really. You can plug a pair of XLR Male-Female cables into the box and use both transformers to achieve what you ask. That is, RCA IN to XLR OUT to XLR IN to RCA OUT. However, if you use the 1/8" TRS IN or OUT it is physically tied to the corresponding RCA connectors.
