  2. Microphone super quiet

    So Ive tried everything from reinstalling the driver to searching google people seem to not have this issue atleast not the same as me.

    My microphone is on a headset but i plugged the headset into the headset slot the computer never understood that it was a Headset/Microphone so i plugged the headset into the Microphone slot and got another headset and plugged it into the headset slot after
    that didnt fix the issue i gave up and ended up moving the Mic/Headset into the pink jack in the back of my computer and left the other headset in the headset slot but my issue is no matter what i do my microphone is super quiet and when i boost it. It becomes
    a car horn up to your ear that sounds like its in a tunnel how do i fix this or am i in a Pickle??? and what i mean is it boosts my voice but it becomes super loud and at the same time i sound like im in a tunnel

    Mic Boost Set to 30 dB - Still Super Quiet

    For some reason, both my onboard microphone and external mic on my headphones (through the four-pole headset jack) are super quiet. I installed Audacity to double-check.

    While there is sound, only once amplified in Audacity can I hear it. I tried boosting the volume in System Sounds, but it won't actually apply. Despite being set to 30 dB, it isn't boosted when I record/listen to the mic.

    Windows 11 Pro

    why is my mic super quiet

    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.
