  1. Mic volume extremely low


    i need help ASAP. I have a headset with a mic, and it works fine on my laptop, my Xbox, my phone, everything. The mic is normal volume there. However, in Windows 10, it is extremely quiet, even though all my mic settings are turned to 100. Gain does not help, none of the other forums have solutions. No mic will work on Windows 10, I have to scream to get even a little volume. Please help!

    :)

    Extremely low microphone volume after upgrade

    After updating from Windows 7 to Windows 10 (kinda prefer 7 to be honest, but still getting used to 10), I've discovered that the input volume on my microphone - a generic old style (though not immensely old) stalk mic - is extremely low, low enough that
    software just considers it noise. I have updated my Realtek audio drivers to no effect. Driver volume and boost set to maximum. Any idea what I can do about this?

    Mic volume extremely low

    Microphone input extremely low after windows 10

    So i just upgraded from windows 8.1 to 10 and loved it but i noticed after getting in a skype call with a friend that my mic volume was extremely low, so i check the sound properties and the sound bar showed that the audio input was barely registering,
    i gave the microphone full volume and boost, did nothing, updated to latest realtek drivers, did nothing, tried my mic on my laptop with windows 7, worked perfectly. Tried many more "solutions" found online and nothing has solved this issue, i have a youtube
    channel and my microphone a necessity. As far as i can tell this is an issue with windows 10 i never have previously had this issue before on amy version of windows. Any suggestions? My mic is not a usb mic it plugs through the aux jack dedicated for the
    mic.
