  1. How to get more options in microphone format settings?


    So I recently got a P47 wireless headset with mic but when I recorded using the mic, the audio was so bad. So then I located to system > sound and then my microphones properties then in the input settings I saw that in the format tab the only option it had was "1 channels, 16bit, 16000 Hz Tape Recorder Quality". And I think that is the problem with my mic. So please show me a way to get more options in the format tab or if that could not be possible then please show me a way to get good quality audio. More info:~I am using windows 11.~The mic works great on other devices.~Screenshot

  2. setting up microphone for speech recognition

    Hi,



    Thank you for writing to Microsoft Community Forums.



    We understand your concern as you are trying to setup speech recognition on the PC.
    In order to get clarity and to assist you accordingly, please reply with the answers to the questions below.



    • What is the Windows 10 version and Build installed? (Type
      winver in Windows search/Run command)
    • When you say that “the box is grey and unresponsive”, where you are seeing this option?
    • Are you able to connect the microphone to the PC? (Does it show in Device Manager)


    Meanwhile we would suggest you to perform these steps and check if you are able to setup the microphone.

    Steps to set up a microphone: Before you set up Speech Recognition, make sure you've plugged the microphone into your PC so the following steps work.

    1. Press Windows + Q or click on the Windows Search.
    2. Enter Set up a microphone in the search box, and then tap or click
      Set up a microphone.
    3. Follow the instructions on the screen.
    4. Once you are able to setup the microphone and then check if it’s working.

  4. How to get more options in microphone format settings?

    Unable to use and set up microphone on Windows 10

    Hello Adrian,



    Thank you for posting on Microsoft Community. We regret the inconvenience caused and will help you in resolving the issue.



    Before assisting further, did you check if the option to use microphone is enabled in the system
    Settings page?



    You may be facing the above issue due to disabling the option to use microphone on your PC. If the option to use microphone is switched to
    Off status, your microphone will not be getting detected and eventually will not be able to complete the wizard to set it up on your PC.



    Method 1: Follow the steps below to check if the option to use microphone is enabled on your PC.




    • Press Windows logo key on the keyboard, type
      Microphone privacy settings and select the top most search result.

    • Check if Let apps use my microphone option is switched to
      On status. If not, slide the bar to On status and check if the changes are effective.


    Method 2: If the issue persists, I suggest you to the
    Hardware and Devices troubleshooter by following the steps below and check if the issue is resolved.




    • Press Windows logo key on the keyboard, type
      troubleshooter and select the top most search result.

    • Click on View all from left side panel of the screen.

    • Select Hardware and Devices, click on
      Advanced option and check Apply repairs automatically
      option.

    • Follow the on screen instructions.

    • Close the window after troubleshooting is completed and check if the changes are effective.


    Write to us with the status of the issue on the same post for further assistance. Your reply is most important for us to ensure we assist you accordingly.



    Thank you.
