given the strange sounds i'm thinking its not ground loop (which is normally a solid constant buzzing)īy ground loop i was referring to "not properly grounded" or "multiple grounding points" which can cause issues. you can get ground loop isolators for 3.5mm or just use a powered usb hub if its usb and it normally goes away. What do you mean by hardware based ground loop or emi btw? Also I wasn't talking at all during that sound clip, so I think I can scratch me talking too loudly off the list of possibilities. I will also give your suggestions a shot if that doesn't work. I thought I would try that later to see if that helps. I have read recently from a couple different places that the problem could potentially be that the pc isn't properly grounded, and that you should try a different wall outlet. Hardware based ground loop or emi generally is more of a constant buzz. test mic with all speakers turned off, stereo mix turned off and in open area to see if that is the case. it can sound like aliens trying to communicate with you from the mothership. some funky sounds can be generated, especially with some noise cancellation, anti feedback or 3d audio options enabled at the same time. Likely your microphone picking up on echo, either from your room walls and you speaking loudly or from your headphones if you have the volume cranked high and your microphone gain set extremely high. You could say that it's a faulty wire, but I doubt it since these sounds were heard from a different headset as well, and those were plugged into a different jack at the front of my pc at the time before I even had a sound card. Any help would be greatly appreciated.ĮDIT: I should probably also say that the intensity of the noises produced varies depending on the positions of my mic cable. I could be wrong since memory is a bit hazy).ĭid Microsoft really make a feature like mic boost in such a way that it is impossible to use without it producing such sounds? I really like to believe that isn't the case and that I'm just really unlucky when it comes to audio. My previous pc I got right here as well, a Dell Studio XPS 7100, also produced these sounds (I think anyway. I originally thought it was due to said headset, that is until I heard it in my Sennheiser. I also have these older Turtle Beach Earforce X11's that also produce the same sounds. Turning the mic boost off makes it near impossible for anyone to hear me unless they first turn down whatever it is they may be playing while also cranking their master volume up. I am currently using the microphone boost feature all the way to 100, but doing so yields quite obnoxious noises which you should hear through the link provided at the top. I figured I would personally try my hand here to see if I can resolve this audio issue that has been driving me a bit crazy. I have seen other people with this problem, but I haven't really found any solution that worked for me. Headphones: Sennheiser 598 with Modmic attachment
