Hey Ignaciohdi, how are you today? Hope you're well.

You can click on the microphone button to enable external audio recording so you can add commentary or do a voiceover. (You'll still record internal audio either way.)

Check out this link, there's a tutorial of all the options to record with voice with the gamebar.

Hello Irish_Nugget,

Thank you for reaching out to us about your issue!

Can you verify whether or not your microphone sounds like that in any other applications?

I have a few solutions that may work for you:

1. Verify that your device is up to date

• Open your Settings
  
• Go to Windows Update
  
• Select Check for updates
  

This will assure that you're not missing any updates or drivers that could be causing this issue.

2. Changing the default audio device in the Xbox Game Bar

• Open the Xbox Game Bar
  
• In the Audio widget, select the Voice tab
  

Verify that your default communications output and default communications input are both set to the devices that you would like to use.

3. Change the default input device for computer

• Open your Settings
  
• Go to System
  
• Open Sound
  

In the Input section, verify that you have the correct microphone selected in the "Choose your input device" drop-down menu

4. Change your microphone settings

• Open your Settings
  
• Go to System
  
• Open Sound
  
• Select Device properties in the Input section
  
• In the Device properties menu, select Additional device properties under Related Settings on the right
  
• In the new window, select the Enhancements tab if there is one and select Disable all enhancements
  
• If there is no Enhancements tab, open the Advanced tab to see if the setting is there. If it is, uncheck the Enable audio enhancements box if it's checked.
  

Once enhancements are disabled, try recording again to verify whether or not the microphone is working properly.

You can also try lowering or raising the Default Format of the microphone in the Advanced tab if the other steps did not work. Try multiple settings while also running test recordings to verify if the mic is running properly or not.

Let us know if this helps!

Thank You,

XBF Dom
