Xbox game bar mic threshold settings

If I go in the Xbox game bar the microphone settings detect my mic and the bar goes up but when I'm in a game or party nobody can hear me

who else can hear people talk and game audio but when you plug in your mic into game chat it doesn't pop up or let people hear me I've checked all in game audio settings and it's all on open mic threshold all lobby so on and so forth so what's the prolbem?

Thats what I'm doing.. the only thing I am doing different from playing keyboard/mouse is the controller itself. but when i plug it in every setting on the pc changes to controller mic. Even though the controller has no mic. So I go back through all the
pc settings and xbox companion settings and change it back but the xbox game bar will not let me use the usb mic anymore. I have to unplug the controller and reset the pc to be able to use my mic again. when I start a party in the companion app it says my
mic is working , but if i am in a party on that app for some reason I'm not in a party on the game bar... so if i start a party on the game bar the mic still doesn't work..

I'm pretty sure that the Xbox Console Companion app is now outdated. You should probably use the new Xbox app.

Is your issue related to using your mic in the actual app or your mic using Game Bar?

Game Bar party chat is much better than the app's built-in party chat and will most definitely pick up your mic.

(You can activate Game Bar by pressing Win + G)

You can also change your default mic in the Settings in the Sound tab.

This is controlled by the 360 as to what threshold will activate your mic. There isn't any way to change it on the console side and as far as I know none of the Tritton headsets have microphone volume controls. I have an AXPro and the same detachable mic
boom and haven't had issue with it. Quick test I would do first is record a voice message at regular speaking volume and play it back. If it sounds fine to you then it's the 360 threshold and you just need to speak louder. If it doesn't sound right I would
get in contact with Tritton and see about getting a replacement mic under warranty.

I have to almost yell or cover my mouth to get the older MS wireless headset to start picking up so this threshold is actually set high across a lot devices.
