    Party chat and game chat volume issues


    I'm not even sure when this happened but prior to my issue, using the TB XO Seven Headset/Adapter, I could easily turn down party chat until I didn't hear voices. There would be some variation in game chat volume but I could turn it up or down as I needed.
    Currently, turning party chat all the way down will not silence voices and it will also affect my game chat so much that I can't hear anything. Do get party chat to silence, I have to turn down voice chat AND game chat. Again, not sure what happened.

    The funny thing is, if I plug in the default Xbox adapter, party chat and game chat work fine seperately. However, the sound quality is amazingly bad. Anyone else experience this?

    I have an Xbox One S

    Controller driver is 2.3.2388.0

    Headset driver is 4.7.00

    :)

    Where did the Party Chat Mixer go for Xbox One?

    A few months ago, there used to be audio options under the system tab for Xbox One, but it was taken away. In these audio options, you could adjust the game volume and party volume with a slider. The closest thing I can find now is when I pick settings,
    display & sound, volume, and then chat mixer. The options in this chat mixer are - mute all other sounds, reduce the volume of other sounds by 80%, reduce the volume of other sounds by 50%, or do nothing. If this chat mixer is for party chat, I can tell you
    right now that it doesn't work. No matter what option is selected, the party volume to game volume is always the same, with no difference, the game is loud and the party is quiet. Is this chat mixer for the Mixer feature, because there's already audio options
    for that, so I wouldn't think so. So again, if the chat mixer is for party chat, it doesn't work. Where can I adjust how loud the party volume is compared to game volume for my headset?

    Game volume and party chat issue

    Hey HeCkZz! Are you using a first party headset? Do you have another controller you can test out to see if the issue is present with both? Post back and let me know!

    Turtle Beach X12 Question

    Question, I can hear the game audio, but I cant change the chat volume, yet I can still hear my friends in party's and game chat. The only way I can change how loud there voice is to change the game volume on my X12. I tried going to preferences and voice,
    but when I switch to play through headset, I don't hear my friends. Is there anyway I can change my friends voice volume? Because chat volume doesn't work on game chat and party chat.

    What would you like to see added to Xbox 2020?

    I love that you can change the volume of party chat, game volume and spotify. That part I would lile a little extra added to is being able to adjust volume of individual party members in party chat. Some people have very quite mics or jsut speak louder
    the others so would be great to tweak it when in a party.

    How have you got your headset connected?

    I ask because as there are separate volume controls for chat and game sound you should not encounter this problem.
