    Using Windows 10 on a desktop computer less than a year old. Purchased a highly rated no-name 1080HD webcam but it sounds like it's under water. Checked properties and microphone is set to 1 channel 16000 bitrate Tape Cassette Quality but I am unable to change this setting to anything higher. Please help!

    Mic/Webcam set up

    Hi,
    My wife is working from home, she's using her Win 10 Samsung laptop, but struggling for webcam & mic set up.

    This is pictures of whats happening. first one is the error, 2nd is the options, then the next 2 are in the security when you click manage, just can't get them to work, say drivers are all up to date and both are enabled in device manger, she's got a mic/headset from her work and this works, but still no webcam.

    Converting old tape cassettes to MP 3

    Unless you need a standalone apparatus for digitizing cassette tapes all you need is a half decent player with headphone connection and a stereo cable to connect to any computer Line-in and any of hundreds of sound recording programs, even W10 has such APP.
    I digitized many hours of music and sound using Sony pocket player.
