  2. mic isnt working

    my brand new mic works on other devices but refuses to give a squeak on my pc. its a usb mic. ive done everything suggested in help forums and it still isnt working. ive also tried with airpods and none of the options i have worked, yet they worked elsewhere, so i know this is a windows issue. there is no error message, the mic is unmuted, the input is correct, the mic is connected, theres just static on the other side when i test it in game and in settings. mic volume is at 100% and it still isnt working. PLEASE HELP!!!!

    Headset mic not working

    I upgraded from windows 8.1, and i used a Turtle beach XO7 headset and it worked fine.

    I updated to windows 10 and my headset mic isnt being used, i went to recording devices and it doesnt show up but the web cam mic. the audio plays fine through the headset, but the mic itself doesnt work. I dont know if it even has drivers, its an Xbox one
    mic.

    I also have another mic from Xbox one that has the same problem, Please help.



    Thank You.

    Jon
