Windows 10: Xbox game bar audio recording very low.

Problem makes no sense. Internal mic disabled. Webcam mic disabled. Headset mic set to default and enabled. Game is browser based and has mic support. Webgame reads audio loud and clear. When I record with game bar, all three other players voices are crisp. Mine is super low. To add to the strangeness if I brush my finger on my mic it is super loud as it should be. But cant pick up my voice at more than a whisper. Is gamebar somehow bypassing permissions and using a dif mic for capturing than what is actually being used for game? I am so confused and so upset. Ive been dealing with audio probl

Game bar capture doesn't record audio anymore

What do you need me to tell you? I have told as much as I know about the issue, and I am trying to cooperate with you but the fixes that you are giving me are not specific to the issue, which I am going to restate:

Xbox Game Bar does not record system audio, only video, and this is probably due to the use of the Razer sound card which I am using with my headphones. I am wondering if there is a fix for this issue or whether I will just have to work around it.

These are things that I have already done from your previous responses:

• Enabled 'All' audio to record
  
• Turned on 'Record audio when I record a game'
  

I have also attempted to:

• Reset all Xbox apps
  
• Re-register the Xbox Game Bar
  
• Uninstall and reinstall the Xbox Game Bar
  

These were all unsuccessful.

Any other link (Game Bar not recording at all, Game Bar not capturing microphone audio, Game Bar not working completely) was unrelated.

 

Xbox Game Bar Capture Doesn't Record Mic Audio

Hi,



Thank you for writing to Microsoft Community Forums.



I understand that you are facing issues while recording microphone audio using game bar while playing games.



I would suggest you to try troubleshooting Game Bar and see if that helps. Refer the article

Troubleshoot Xbox Game Bar on Windows 10



In addition, you can also check if the Microphone for game bar is enabled under privacy settings.

1. Go to Settings (press Windows +
   I key together) > Privacy.
   
2. On the left hand pane scroll down and look for
   Microphone.
   
3. Toggle Allow apps to access Microphone
   to ON.
   
4. Under Choose which Microsoft Store app can access your Microphone toggle Xbox game bar to
   ON.
   
5. Restart the game bar.
   

If the issue persists, please get back to us with details of the troubleshooting steps to assist you further.

The fix is still likely there. Game bar recording fixes are eventually going to fix only Game Bar audio not recording. I assure you if you work through those fixes the problem would have been solved.
