    Why is it that, whenever I join a game, the quality of my audio gets worse? I've got no...


    So, recently, I got a new laptop. I didn't mess around with the sound or microphone settings or anything. At the same time, I also got some new wireless headphones to use alongside it. The quality is great whenever I'm on call with my friends, and I have zero complaints. But, as soon as I join Roblox specifically, the quality takes a nosedive, and everything sounds muffled and, honestly, horrible. I looked around for some help online, but I don't really know what the issue is, so I can't accurately look for help on the topic. Any kind of help would be appreciated, thanks.

    :)

    Progressively Worse Audio Quality (Crackling)


    Hello. Hoping someone can help me. Since upgrading my Windows 7 to Windows 10, I've had audio problems. At first the audio quality was terrible (hissing, crackling) so I uninstalled and reinstalled my NVIDIA drivers. This fixed the problem but now I find that the audio quality gets worse over time. Once I reboot it goes back to pristine quality and that lasts a day or two but slowly the quality gets worse with more crackling. It's very annoying.

    Any idea what's going on? Is it somehow tied to my RAM or some kind of cache that builds up over time?

    I'm a noob so bear with me!

    Better audio quality settings in game bar?

    Hello Everyone,

    I'm using game bar for the 1st time and i have a question about the audio quality. Is there a way to get past 192kbps? I really want that pristine, raw audio quality that i'm looking for when i record/edit my content. If not, can you suggest programs to
    me that record in high-definition?

    Thanks,
