    Mic Suddenly Quiet on GOXLR

    After trying these fixes nothing changed, mic still way to quiet. Also just to clarify, my mic is picked up just fine, but it's very quiet and I have to turn the gain up in the GOXLR software which compromises quality greatly.

    I'll try to contact their support when their website isn't down as it has been for the past few days. Anymore help would be wonderful if you can provide it.

    my sound is very quiet and my mic does not function at all how do i fix this?

    My mic is too quiet in certain apps

    So my mic (Realtek) seems to have issues with volume, it seems to be only quiet in certain apps like games (SCPSL is one of the games) System itself (it claims theres barely any noise coming out of my mic) and internet browsers, yet in discord my mic seems to be at a good volume.

    i tried multiple things:

    Update the driver (It says i got the best verison and i have no idea on how to update it myself)

    Put the mic volume at highest it could be in both control panel and settings

    Troubleshoot found no problems

    reinstalled the driver

    made sure its my default mic and that it is enabled

    i disallowed applications to change it

    yet none of these work, another thing it did fix itself when i woke up like a few weeks ago but yesterday it came back, i tried all these steps above and it seems to still be quiet, im not fully sure why it has been annoying me.
