    Mic Boost slider missing in Windows 8.1

    I have a good quality professional mic (USB) yet the input volume is very low inspite of the high volume settings in Audacity.

    I was looking for a solution and found a number of articles advising to increase the mic boost in the sound levels window.

    The problem is that I DO NOT have the mic boost slider below the volume slider. I have never seen it there from day one.

    Apparently this is a known issue - except that no one has got the solution - which is

    How to activate the mic boost slider so that it shows in the levels window (and can be adjusted)

    I have Windows 8.1 (64)

    I do hope that someone from MS support can help me find my mic boost slider.

    No boost option for mic

    So I got a new mic today and when I went to the properties for it I only saw a slider for volume and nothing for boost, it is a microphone that connects to the pc via usb and does not need a driver to be installed. Could someone please help me out here
    I don't really know how to get the slider for boost.

    Can't boost microphone in Windows 10

    Thanks for replying Mic boost slider :)

    I did all the steps listed, but as shown in the screenshot above there is no Microphone Boost slider to modify. And in the "Custom" tab the Microphone Boost box is check-marked so I have no idea why its not showing.
