    All mic options are on max, but microphone is still quiet?


    Hey reddit, I currently have a Razer Tournament Edition Headset and have all my microphone options set to max, levels are max etc etc. And my microphone is still quiet on Discord. I've set my input volume to max on Discord and still quiet! Any help?

    Microphone extremely quiet

    So for some odd reason, microphone input is really quiet.

    I'm using Asus ROG Strix B350-F Gaming as my board so the microphone is being plugged into that. I've tried putting microphone boost and levels to 100% but the input is still really really quiet, if you're lucky you can hear a whisper if you're shouting down the mic.

    I've tested the mic on other devices like my phone and it works fine but for some odd reason my desktop isn't being nice about it.

    This is darn annoying and a massive inconvenience.

    Things I've tried -
    Uninstalled realtek and re-installed the latest driver
    Set microphone boost and levels to max
    Tested with 'Disable all sound effects' on and off

    I'm out of luck at this point and I'm not entirely sure where to go from this. I'd love to get this fixed so some advice/help would be appreciated, thank you.

    Realtek Microphone Driver

    I recently built a new computer for the primary use of gaming. The machine runs beautifully except for the fact that my mic audio is really quiet. I've cranked all of my mic settings to the max setting and my friends are still saying I'm quiet. I know
    this is not an issue with my microphone as it is one I've used for a while on other computers with no issue and I've tried using a different microphone but kept getting the same result. My best guess is that I need to reinstall the microphone driver but I
    can't figure out where to download it from. Any suggestions?
