Hello there!
I'm trying to solve a problem with cables solution for my home audio setup.
I have a computer internal sound card, external sound card, headphones and speakers and I need to connect it together, so it won't be necessary to switch cables everytime I want to play the guitar.
First of all, a friend of mine told me that he used this setup for Xbox gaming with his friends: Imgur link
So, my question is: Would a cable solution like the one I'll show you actually work without any problems? (No interferrence, 100% functionality etc.)
Here's the scheme of the cabling I'd like to have: Imgur link and another image Imgur link (Those cable switches I'm using are standard switches with 2 female jacks and 1 male plug)
My conditions are:
Looking forward to read your opinions/advices/thoughts.
Best regards

My conditions are:
■ I need to use external sound card for guitar playing, because it cooperates with the software
■ I have an internal sound card, which I'd like to use for any other activity than playing the guitar
■ At least for now, I'd like to avoid buying a sound mix, because it's just too expensive
■ I'd like to keep completely separated speakers and headphones, which means that I don't want to connect my headphones through the speakers control station (btw. name of the speakers is Genius GX Gaming SW-G2.1 1250)
■ I want to use my headphones for both guitar playing and PC sound
■ I want to use my speakers for both guitar playing and PC sound
■ I'm lazy to / it's annoying to always switch cables, I'd like to control it with software only (so I'll only have to switch the primary sound card)
Looking forward to read your opinions/advices/thoughts.
