    I have turned off noise suppression on Xbox Game Bar but every time I join or host a Xbox party my audio on the rest of my PC becomes an awful quality and is so quiet.

    Noise suppression is turned off in xbox party but it makes no difference if on or off.

    The same happens when I'm on Discord. I have had a look through sound settings as well as through control panel but nothing seems to fix it...

    Anyone know how to resolve this?

    :)

    Hi, Daniel! It's my pleasure to assist you with this today.

    Please try to follow these steps. Make sure to close any games and applications before proceeding. Thank you.

    Ensure that you are on the most recent version of the Xbox app and the Game Bar App

    Microsoft Store app > Downloads > Get updates/Update all

    Ensure that you have updated your PC to the most recent version of Windows, including optional updates

    PC Settings > Windows Update > Check for updates > Install

    Sign Out of Your Accounts (Xbox App and Microsoft Store App):

    Open the Microsoft Store by pressing Windows Key + S, typing Microsoft Store, and selecting App Settings.

    Click on Repair and then Reset the app.

    Repeat the same process for the Xbox App and Game Bar App

    Restart Your Device:

    After repairing and resetting both apps, restart your device.

    Sign back into both the Xbox App and the Microsoft Store using the same email.

    Check if this resolves the issue. Thank you!

    please tell me voice reconization is better on the new kinect

    It's supposed to be much better, able to distinguish between individual voices unlike the current version. there is a demo on YouTube showing how good the noise suppression is too - it's able to pick out a normal tone of voice when the game being played
    is on very high volume.

    i remember when playing video games was a "waste of time". Now we are sitting watching another person play a video game? Seems like a matter of time before I am watching someone sit there who is watching someone else play a video game. Sounds fun!

    i would rather play myself or watch tv or a movie....or even stupid video clips on Youtube.

    Disc drive

    Does that happen with every game disc?

    Does it also happen with BluRay movies and movie DVDs or music CDs?

    When the disc is inserted, does the console show a disc is inserted?

    How does the buzzing sound? Is it more a "humming" buzzing sound, as if the disc is uneven and is spinning unevenly? Or is it an electrical buzzing, like an electrical motor unable to turn? Or is it a grinding buzzing as if plastic gears are slipping?

    What about the beeping noise? Is it a beep similar to the console turning on and off, or is that a different beep?

    Can you record a video of your console doing this and uploading that to YouTube?

    My xbox makes a buzzing noise

    If you really wanted to you could upload it to like YouTube as a video.

    I all ready know what the sound sounds like because my xbox dose it also.

    The noise is nothing to worry about it is just normal and dose not cause any damage to the games.
