    Xbox Microphone Quality


    For the second time in 6 months, my xbox mic has broken due to fragile wiring. I just ordered from a new brand. I am very disappointed in the quality from Xbox. I do not recommend buying one of their headsets.

    Game DVR Windows 10 Update, Microphone Quality now Poor

    Good Afternoon,

    I'm having problems with the Windows Xbox One App when it was updated with the major windows 10 update last week on my laptop.

    When I record games using the in game DVR the microphone quality has dropped significantly since the update. I've checked under Game DVR settings and the Audio Quality is set to 192 Kbps.

    This is not an issue with the Microphone/Hardware but an issue with the App itself because when I record using other software the quality is outstanding, as it was with the Xbox One Game DVR prior to the update.

    How can I fix the issue?

    Kind Regards,

    Sam.

    Adapter to add a microphone to standard headphones?

    I have a number of high quality headphones, so I would rather no spend money on dedicated gaming headphones just because I need a mic. Does anyone know if a microphone/adapter that attaches inline to any headphone is available that works with the new Xbox
    One controller? I am looking for something that standard headphones plug into, that contains a microphone, then that microphone connects to the Xbox One controller. Something like

    this    , but has a port that my headphones can plug into.

    Xbox Microphone Quality

    I would recommend reading reviews online of headsets before purchase, quality really varies headset to headset unfortunately.

    Earbuds recommendation

    Any earbuds that have a good microphone quality is fine. You can test them on your laptop or phone how are they registering sound.

    The microphone quality differs pretty widely. The Samsung AKG's are pretty good.

    Windows 11 microphone quality in Discord in games / sometimes not working at all

    After investigating further via the audio playback tool in the sound control panel. the problem is my blue Yeti Microphone. using a different microphone the problem completely disappeared.

    But I'd really like to use my Blue Yeti Microphone as the quality is simply better. if you would know, Is there why in some game scenarios specifically games that are more demanding why a microphone's quality would drop or suddenly cut out?
