Hi ph techi magicians,

I am a deaf old bat with a problem. I need hearing aids in both ears, so to listen to music my head phones are a loop system. This is a 'loop' of wire I wear around my neck and plug the wire into stereo or ipod or computer etc, and my hearing aids have a switch to enable me to hear. No problem.
But this is my problem..............
I like to play my electric drum kit, my family dont like me to play my drum kit - every day.
I can plug into the kit so only I can hear it, but this means I can't plug my loop system into my ipod.
So my question is, is there a 'plug thingy' / 'splitter thingy' that I can use that allows me to hear the drums and ipod at the same time.
Otherwise I can only hear music, or drums, I cant have both.
Hope this makes sense.
Thank you.smile

Assuming all your kit on 3.5mm plugs, then this splitter should do the trick.

If you're using the bigger 6.35mm plugs, then simply Google 6.35mm splitter.
That's just what I need, thank you so much.

oops no. It's the other way round, I need one female end (for my hearing loop) then two male plugs, one for the ipod the other for the drums.
Thank you again.

Thank you Tony,
I was stumped as to which road to go down. I will look for a mixer now.
Thank you for your help.
