Windows 10: Reduce Mic Quality

Hi, I was wondering if there was a way to fix this problem when trying to change my microphone quality, I am trying to reduce it.
This would be pretty simple if I wasn't getting a grayed out option bar.
Is there a way to change this? (I am on a laptop and that is the built in mic if it's useful information)
Maybe an application to change it? Anyways, thanks.

Is it possible to use a bluetooth headset mic while having High quality sound

I have a Plantronics BackBeat Sense SE bluetooth headset. When Connecting it to Windows 10, it installs two profiles in Playback devices list:

1. PLT_BBTSENSE Hands-Free.
   
2. PLT_BBTSENSE Stereo.
   

The Second one (Stereo) is set to be the "Default Device" and the "Default Communication Device" on the system.

At this point the sound works great and normally. The problem happens when I want to use the mic. When I start any program that uses the mic (recorder, chat, VoIP Calls, gaming, etc.) The sound suddenly stops working And I can only use the mic until I stop the recorder or the call.

The thing that kind of fixes the problem is setting the (Hands-Free) as the default device. I can hear the sound when I do that and it works with the mic but it becomes Very bad quality.

What I became to understand is that bluetooth had different profiles for sound and mic: A2DP and HSP. The first handle the voice(High Quality) but the latter handles the mic and reduces the sound quality.

Is this really the case? Is there anyway to make them work simultaneously? Is there any solution to this problem at all?

 

USB Mic Problems.

The next step is what I suggested originally. Try it in a friend's PC or take it to Best Buy and ask them to try it one of their PC's. Have to confirm the mic is working OK.

 

ATR 2500 USB Mic quality dropped suddenly

I've been using this mic for weeks to record voice overs in premiere pro on windows 10. Today the quality dropped significantly and I'm not sure why. Any help is appreciated - Here's what I've tried so far

• Uninstalled and reinstalled all audio drivers (failed)
  
• Did a system restore to a point created 2 days ago (failed)
  
• Ran through security settings for microphone to make sure programs are allow access
  
• Tested the mic on my laptop: audio quality seems good there still
  
• Ran troubleshooter on sound devices (failed to find issues)
