Hi there.

The device is this: https://youtu.be/17EV3S9A90E?t=112
It's some kind of adapter that is able to transform the sound into surround.
The audio quality comes from the card itself, so it's a USB sound card.
However, I don't use the surround feature of it (you have to press the "7.1"
button phsyically to enable it).

I have to plug the P2/P3 cable from the headset and then the USB card plugs
into the PC with a normal USB port (and I'm not sure if this counts as a
virtual device). That's where the sound of my PC comes from. It's possible to
use this headset without the USB card.

The device can capture/listen to every sound on my system, because it is
basically the PC/desktop audio entirely. I don't believe it's literally
"recording" something, though.

Thank you for your attention.
