Xbox one S does not send the microphone to the capture card

Hi HeatedZara,

Thank you for your inquiry. Unfortunately, there is no native way to add microphone audio to clips and captures through the Xbox. Videos with audio from the Microphone and party chat are usually captures with external capture cards or added in using editing
software.

I hope this answers your question.

Buy a capture card/device. Read reviews on which one suits your needs. Buy a quality microphone, and for all that is holy, get a pop filter for it.

It depends on the type of your streaming Microphone.

If it's an USB microphone, then no.

If the Microphone has an analogue connector (e.g. 3.5mm jack), you could use a headphone/microphone to CTIA adapter, and plug your Astro into the headphone plug and your streamer microphone to the microphone plug, and then plug the CTIA adapter into the
controller.

Alternatively, if you use a third party streaming software and are screen capturing from your PC, you can start the Party through the Xbox App on your PC, and stream the game to a capture card on your PC. Then you can mix the game audio from the captured
console with your party sound (if your streaming software allows such a mix), and then stream that from your capturing PC to your streaming platform.

Adding a capture card to your Twitch setup can definitely elevate your stream quality, especially when it comes to including your fellow players' game chat audio. Here's a guide to help you set it up correctly:

Equipment:

Xbox One X
Capture Card (e.g., Elgato HD60S+, AverMedia Live Gamer Portable 2 Plus)
HDMI cables (at least 3)
Laptop
OBS Studio
Headphones/headset with microphone (optional)
Connections:

Connect your Xbox One X's HDMI OUT port to the HDMI IN port of your capture card.
Connect the HDMI OUT port of your capture card to your TV's HDMI IN port.
Connect the USB port of your capture card to your laptop using a USB cable.
If you're using headphones/headset, connect them to your laptop's audio jack.

Software:

Launch OBS Studio.
Click on the "+" button in the Sources section and select "Video Capture Device."
In the properties window, select your capture card as the device and give it a name like "Xbox One X."
Click on the "+" button again and select "Audio Input Capture."
Select your capture card as the device and name it "Xbox One Game Chat."
Click on the "+" button one last time and select "Audio Input Capture."
Select your microphone or headset as the device and name it "Microphone."
Adjust the audio levels of each source using the sliders in the mixer section.
Set up your streaming settings in the Settings menu, including the streaming platform (Twitch), bitrate, and resolution.
Click the "Start Streaming" button to start broadcasting your gameplay with your fellow players' voice chat.
Additional Tips:

Make sure your capture card is compatible with your laptop's operating system.
Update your capture card's firmware to the latest version.
Use high-quality HDMI cables to avoid signal loss.
Configure your Xbox One X audio settings to output all audio through the HDMI port.
Use Push-to-Talk or Voice Activation in your streaming software to avoid background noise from your microphone.
Experiment with different OBS settings to find the best balance between quality and performance.

Troubleshooting:

If you're not seeing any video or audio, double-check your connections and make sure your capture card is selected as the video and audio input devices in OBS Studio.
If your audio is choppy or distorted, try lowering your bitrate or resolution in the OBS settings.
If you're having problems connecting to Twitch, check the Twitch service status page for any known outages.

I hope the information I gave you has been useful, have a happy day.

If you're having trouble hearing your voice in recorded game footage, it's likely that you need to use an external microphone to capture your audio. The Xbox Series S controller has a built-in microphone, but it may not be sensitive enough to pick up your voice clearly during gameplay.

To record your voice, you can use a headset with a built-in microphone or a standalone microphone. A popular choice for gaming content creators is the Blue Yeti microphone, which offers high-quality audio recording and a variety of settings for different recording scenarios.

Once you have a microphone set up, you can adjust the audio settings in the Xbox Series S settings menu to ensure that your voice is being recorded. Make sure that the "Capture party audio" and "Capture microphone audio" settings are both turned on.

If you're still having trouble hearing your voice in recorded game footage after trying these steps, it's possible that there may be a technical issue with your console or recording software. In that case, you may want to reach out to Xbox or the software provider for further assistance.
