I have a headset (a Logitech G430) for which I have lost the adapter. There are two plugs on the headset: mic and audio. The adapter enabled 7.1 surround sound on the headset. I am looking for a way to redirect all 7.1 sound channels into this one jack using software, no hardware.
Thanks in advance

The headset you use uses a USB adapter that (I'd guess) performs the 7.1 audio generation. A standard 3.5mm can only do mono or stereo. Many audio cards can do a "fake" 5.1 or surround sound but they use echo and reverb effects via software that normally comes bundled with your sound card.
To get the true 7.1 you'll need to purchase the USB adapter
