Windows 10: Automatic Noise Cancellation?

Idk what could be causing this, but when I speak for extending periods of time on Discord or anything to do where it records my voice, after a few seconds of speaking it basically makes my voice quieter by 50+%.

Creative Announces HN-900 Noise-Canceling Headset

Creative Technology Ltd today announced the new Creative HN-900 noise-canceling headphones, a set of full-size active noise-canceling headphones that can reduce ambient noise by up to 85% and comes with a detachable cable with in-line microphone for voice communication on the iPhone.

Shut out the din in the air cabin or make clear voice calls on the iPhone with the Creative HN-900 noise-canceling headphones. The concealed microphones in the ear-cups pick up surrounding noises and these are electronically negated, effectively reducing the noise by up to 85%. With the absence of unwanted sound, the finely-tuned 40mm Neodymium drivers allow details of music or entertainment to be revealed.









The Creative HN-900's audio cable also comes with an in-line microphone and switch for a convenient one-click call function for voice communication on the iPhone. This cable can be detached from the headphones and the noise-canceling feature turned on - great for times when users want a quiet and peaceful rest. If the headphones run out of battery power, they can still be used in the passive mode without the noise-cancellation function.

The Creative HN-900 is a solid performer, ensuring a quiet backdrop for users' entertainment and communication needs.

Noise Cancellation Headset

Sorry, my mistake for assuming that all noise cancelling headsets are stereo. Does the other open ear not defeat the purpose of noise cancellation?

 

Noise Cancellation Headset

The noise cancellation benefits the person on the other end of the phone... lets say I am in the car and there is a lot of traffic noise, the other person can hear less of it because the headset cancels background sound out
