  1. Mic Sounds Bad In Windows 10 Xbox Chat


    I have an Audio Technica AT2020 USB+ Microphone (about 200 dollars), and i've been using it for lots of things like discord and skype for a really long time. But whenever I go into a party chat with my friends on Xbox ONE, they say my mic is all staticy
    and like i'm in a shower. They also say they can hear my keyboard really loud. I have no clue why this is an issue as in Discord and Skype my mic sounds perfect with no static, and all my friends say my keyboard isn't that loud. I really would like to know
    a fix because I hate it when all my friends say out-loud "I'm gonna mute this kid cuz it sounds like i'm in a shower with a type-writer"

    Send help pls

    :)

    Recording stream on Windows 10, Mic and party sound separated

    Hi!

    My problem is this:

    Everything about the recordning works fine, BUT, all my sound is recorded on my laptop and the built in mic is really bad.

    Party chat sound is recorded via the Xbox x, when recording the other people in the chat sound normal, but my sound is recorded thru the built in mic on PC. How do I change so my sound also records via the party chat? Should be an easy fix considering Xbox
    basically streams all to win 10.

    I´ve got headset connected to xbox controller, I get party + game sound via headset when playing, the PC then records all of this on the PC both video, group chat and people in the group but not my sound, it just ads my mic sound in groupchat via PC.

    ASTRO A50(gen2) vs Turtlebeach Stealth 500X?

    So, from my several hours of research watching Youtube videos and reading reviews on several online retailers, as well as my own experiences, I've come to the conclusion on the difference of these two headsets and their benefits over one another.

    Astro A50:
    - Better game audio quality.
    - Better comfort.
    - Worse mic chat quality.
    - Still requires a chat adapter that connects to the controller to use the mic on Xbox One.

    Turtlebeach Stealth 500X:
    - Decent(?) game audio quality.
    - Better mic chat quality.
    - Completely wireless, does not require chat adapter to use mic on Xbox One.
    - Bad, bad, bad, absolutely no comfort.

    From my personal experience, I've never owned an Astro headset and have only tried them on at a friend's house, but right off the bat I could tell the comfort was absolutely worth it. The problem is, several Youtube videos that using the A50 to record, sound pretty bad. This is important, since the XB1 party chat quality improved drastically, and I would hate to sound like a tin robot, when my friends sound crystal clear with the headset that came with the Xbox One.

    I did, however, own a Turtlebeach XP500 for PS3/Xbox360 last gen for 3 years and the game audio quality sounded great to me, and the mic quality is crystal clear. And they are completely wireless. The comfort, though, absolutely horrible. For the first few years, after about 2 or 3 hours of use the headset would begin to make my ears sore. My last year using it, I could only wear it for 10-15 minutes before my ears began to feel sore. The Stealth 500X are all of what I just said, and they're cheaper.

    So it comes down to supreme comfort and game audio quality with the A50's, or TRUE wireless and supreme mic chat quality with the Turtlebeach Stealth 500X.

    My biggest concerns are the mic quality on the A50's, and the level of comfort on the Stealth 500X, so I was hoping owners of both headsets could hop in here and chime in their opinions and experiences? I thought I learned my lesson that comfort is more important than quality, but it also bugs me just as much to know that I'll sound low quality when I talk to people in party chat(Astro A50).

    Nobody Ever Talks!

    Because all you ever hear are morons shouting and swearing, when they aren't whistling, singing or sounding distorted with their bad-qu.ality mics. Best chat is party chat

    windows 10 party chat

    I have had issues with the party chat not working till a couple of days ago. I had to make sure that the bitrate/quality setting in the advanced tab of the device settings for both mic and earphones were set to default. I tend to set a bit higher bit rates
    for my devices, but it seems the xbox app can´t cope with anything but the default setting there. I hope this helps others with the same problem.

    This link shows the window where you can do what I described.
