Voice Quality

Hi Everyone,

Whenever I transmit voice, the pilot says that my voice is very muffled and somewhat unreadable. I don't know what causes this, I re-calibrated many times and changed the device from 'Wave' to 'DirectSound' and back many times. The microphone is on my headphones a few inches from my mouth.

Any help is appreciated.

 

Thanks!

Are you sure you've got the right input device selected? For example, if you're on a laptop or have a webcam, your pilot client might not be using your headset microphone.

Yep, the correct input device is selected.

I had this issue with a specific headset. What headset are you using?

Hi Colin,

I'm using SkullCandy earphones with the mic built in.

Turns out it was the voice boost causing the problem. My voice isn't perfect, but has greatly improved. Thanks everyone!
