I bought a noise canceling headphone yesterday and it works perfectly. The only problem I have is that when I myself talk, I cannot hear my voice correctly. I'm wondered if it is possible to enable the microphone sound feedback in the audio output while the headphone is connected? I have a MacBook Pro with MacOS 10.6 installed.

I use Audacity for recording new sounds, besides being free, it gives you the option for hardware or software Playthrough.

Preferences window showing Playthrough settings

Thanks Nilloc, but it only works while I record a sound in Audocity. – Mohsen Apr 12 '11 at 15:00

LineIn from Rogue Amoeba lets you route any sound input to any output. Freeware.

I have used this for all sorts of non-critical situations, however if you are going to be monitoring yourself and the lag between when you speak and when you hear your voice becomes distracting, you will want to get a hardware solution that allows less delay in the monitoring. – bmike♦ Mar 27 at 16:45
