  1. Why does adjusting the mic volume not work?


    I recently installed windows 11 on my laptop, but when I plugged in my headset with built in microphone, the mic volume was very quiet.So I tried to max out the mic volume in windows settings, but that didn't do anything. Then I tried to max out the volume and mic boost trough advanced sound settings, but that didn't to anything either. After that I ran the troubleshooter, and it said that the latest audio drivers have already been installed. What could I to make my mic lauder, and fix the not-working sound settings?

    :)

    Adjusting Mic Volume for different programs

    Trying to figure this out here. My mic volume has been fine in TS or Skype. But I recently picked up Dxtory and my mic is quiet in there. I have mic volume set to 100 and no Mic boost. I'd rather not use boost, but today I tried it out and it worked fine. Then I realized Dxtory is connected directly to the volume for your mic in Windows. Which is no problem I figured I would just drop down TS and Skypes outbound volume and be fine. Well Skype that works fine with, but it seems I can't in TS. So I'm stuck with 2 programs (TS and Dxtory), both tied to Windows Sound Settings, but one picks up my voice fine and the other picks it up low. I can't think of a way around it, any ideas here?

    Why does adjusting the mic volume not work?

    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.
