In your specific case there could be a driver version difference or any enhancement employed.

(One thing I have yet to try is putting in a PCI sound card but that seems like a lot of work just to get decent volume from an analog headset. I suspect it is this headset, but I don't have any other analog headsets to test. So that seems like a fix, to skip the analog paths altogether. Depressing since mine is extra fancy!Įdit: I converted my analog Sennheiser headset/mic combo to digital using the Turtle Beach Amigo II and now I only have to set the levels to around 50-65 to get decent input: So I think, sadly, the "solution" might be to avoid analog headsets.
However, if I plug in a USB headset / mic, I don't have this problem - microphone level can be set around 50 and is plenty loud. And the max boost means I hear background noise in the audio now too. Even 90 or +20 db is too low, can barely hear the mic with those settings. To get even decent volume from the microphone I have to set absolute max level and boost:Īnything under that is just way too low. I see it with my (relatively nice!) Sennheiser PC 360 headset also. This is a real problem, even in latest Windows 8.1.
