    XBox game bar auto adjusts microphone level


    I noticed that Microsoft XBox game bar (PC, version 5.220.4292.0) auto adjusts microphone level.

    As I don't speak at beging of recording level is adjusted high and sound is very noisy because it captures fans and and noises.

    When I speak, level is better but still high, sound is satured.

    My hardware is drivers are OK because recording is Powerpoint is fine.

    How to disable microphone auto-level?

    Thanks.

    :)

    Thank you very much. I would be nice if Microsoft could add an application-level settings such as in Skype and and Steam.

    I'm testing the level overrides and exclusive access solutions at operating system level.

    Microphone very quiet

    You should check the levels of your microphone from the console.

    1. With your headset attached, press the glowing “Xbox” button
    2. Navigate to the “System” tab
    3. Select “Audio”
    4. Adjust the “Mic monitoring” option
    5. Slide the bar left to decrease the microphone volume level
    6. Slide the bar right to increase the microphone volume level
    Hope this helps! :)

    microphone not working for game bar or Xbox app Windows 11

    I have adjusted the both settings ("set time zone automatically" was not originally on),hit the sync button and then restarted,

    however I still can not talk in party.

    If this helps, In the audio tab on the Xbox game bar, the bar under "windows default input" it is showing that it is picking sound up through my microphone.
