Adjusting your microphone volume

HOW TO CHANGE YOUR MIC VOLUME IN THE WINDOWS CONTROL PANEL:
Right click on the Speaker icon in your windows systray (in the corner, near the clock).
Choose "Recording Devices" (or if that's not there choose "Sounds" and then click on the "Recording" tab).
Select your microphone and click "Properties" button.
Go to the "Levels" tab.
Adjust the volume.
(Various programs and windows itself will mess with this volume setting over time.  So check this setting often and make sure to keep changing it back to what you want it to be.)


If that doesn't work, make sure your volume in Discord is set to 100%:
Go into Discord settings (the gear icon) -> "Voice & Video" -> "Input Device"
Change the "Input Volume" slider to 100%.

You should also check that Discord is actually using the correct device.  Sometimes it will auto-detect the wrong device such as a webcam instead of your mic.
Go to Discord settings (the gear icon) -> "Voice & Video" -> "Input Device"
Make sure "Input Volume" isn't extremely low.  We recommend having it at 100%.
Make sure "Input Device" is set to the right device.
If "Default" isn't working, try setting it to the specific device you're using.
