I am hoping to buy a headset for use on both my pc, and my ps4 – So want one with a 3.5mm jack. I have found some I like, within the price range, and using 3.5mm adapters. However, these headsets have a separate socket for both the audio and the mic. This would be fine for my pc, but the dualshock 4 only has a single 3.5mm jack socket. If I were to use a 3.5mm jack splitter to merge the audio and mic plugs into one, would this work? If not, is there any other piece of equipment that I would be able to use to combine the two leads for mic and audio into one, or is it not possible?
Thank you in advance for any answers!

You'll need to use an audio/mic joiner to join the two separate headphones cable into one, it should look something like this:
Take note of the three bands on the plug and the different colored sockets. This is how you can visually identify the cable has three channels, one for the microphone and two for left and right audio.
A quick Google/eBay search leads to some promising results, just make sure you get the correct cable.
Don't forget to turn on in game audio through the controller port as described in this question.
