Seems odd, but only while playing CSS my mic is incredibly low on highest levels. It's a USB port mic, so I've tried multiple ports, highest output, but its still barely audible.

Suggestions that don't include "Did you plug it in?" are welcome.

That happened to me a long time ago.

For me, the wires inside the microphone were tangles and basically wasted. Unrepairable.

I got a new mic and it worked fine.

So, my suggestion is that your mic's dead and you need to buy a new one :usa2:

Too bad you didn't read what I wrote. WORKS FINE OUTSIDE OF CSS.

Thats what she said... :3

Any way... Try deleting your config, that did it for me. :)

CS:S numbs the sensitivity; your computer picks it up as lot better than the Source Engine.

If not, that, then try TK's idea :ohwell:

Fucking mute, I'll try the configs or a complete reinstall, but both would probably have the same effect.

I'm not even sure if I get this, but I think I just get this on CSS and Vent.........or maybe always. (Fixed on vent though by putting 10+ input lol)

But I talk normally into the mic, probably enough to wake my family in other rooms, and people say "speak up we can't hear you" and I just think wow........highest input levels on css aren't high enough :ohwell:

I had this on my old mic, but now it is slightly better, so maybe it is something to do with settings....

How'd the config delete work for you potshot? I think that might be the best course of action, that stuff really makes no sense to me how it can be different levels on different programs.
