Listening to music IMO, increases your SA, because it keeps you toggling the hats.   Also, if Pink Floyd is playing, as my squaddies know, I rarely hear vox.

But...if you're looking for in-flight music, you should check out the system in this video:

Stern is a tool. Opie and Anthony ftw!

Opie and Anthony are tools.

First off, you don't want a splitter, what you want is a "ducker".
I use em doing audio for corporate events where there are more than one speaker on the stage and one of them is working as a moderator or such. What they do is interrupt a specified signal when another is active. Like a side chain compressor.  Probably too much for a game setup.
What I do is use a small mixer in my rig. Not only can I listen to any input or combination thereof but if the phone rings or I need to pay attention to another source, all I do is throw done a fader. It also helps getting the various input volumes under control. I also use a crossover to send lfo to a sub.  That along with a bit of verb and dogfights take on a whole new character.

Use the SEARCH Button. There are many threads on this topic.

You can play music with Aces high on. Just leave Media Player or I tunes up in the background while you play the game. Use the Buttons on your key board to control it.

He wants something that will cut out the music on vox transmissions only. Wont the ducker cut out the music at all times as long as there's an engine or machine guns or any other sound from the game?

Excellent point, but not really, the trigger threshold can be adjusted so the unit engages when a certain level is exceeded. A bit of volume adjustment would be required in the game's sounds dialog.
I don't think it's the way to go but it could work. There may even be a sorft version but I don't know of any and that would require more apps to be open when the game's running. I use my setup to keep the computer focused on running AH and to have access to all audio inputs all the time,

If you play A/H long enough, it will begin to fry your brain. Which isn't nesacerly a bad thing, as it will open doors in your brain that have music allready on demand. Albeit "in your head"...nope we don't need no D.J. here. carry on gents.
