    Mic works fine when right up to face but when at a normal distance its too quiet to hear

  3. Mic quiet - This is silly

    I have looked through numerous posts on this site and no one has a solution. Honestly I have no idea why I expect any different results.

    Anyways my Mic is too quiet, no one can hear me. They can if I yell, and I mean yell. Like the yell you got when your parents were pissed, blood vessels bursting yell. But even then it's still quiet.

    That last update caused this. Before it worked fine.

    I reformatted and now the problem persists.

    This is obviously Microsoft's fault, have they found a fix yet?

    Hi,

    There's a possibility that some settings in your sound properties are not properly set. For possible solution, we suggest that you follow the suggested workaround provided by
    Yashwanth Kotakuri on this thread.

    We also suggest that you check the balance level of your headphone by following these steps:

    • Right click the little speaker icon near the clock on the taskbar.
    • Click Playback devices.
    • Double-click the Headphones.
    • Click the Levels tab.
    • Then check the Balance of left and right.
    We are eager on getting this resolved for you, we will wait for your feedback.
