Vel'Roz Posted June 25, 2016 Share Posted June 25, 2016 (edited) Recently my mic sometimes distort and turns robotic. At first I thought it was only my SLAM that was doing it but I checked my mic using voice_loopback 1. I cant play music without it having bad quality and I cant talk without sounding like a robot. I've already tried a lot of solutions, like scaling down the mic input and entering -voice_mixer_volume 0.10 in the launch options. If anyone else has a solution please share. Edit: Currently no solution helped so Im gonna wait a week to see if anything changes Edited June 25, 2016 by Mango Pervdragon Quote Link to comment
SupaNipplez Posted June 25, 2016 Share Posted June 25, 2016 Tried it outside of CS:GO or in a different game? Quote Link to comment
Vel'Roz Posted June 25, 2016 Author Share Posted June 25, 2016 (edited) Tried it outside of CS:GO or in a different game? When I'm testing it on Windows and Steam its fine. Its also fine on teamspeak. I haven't tried it on different games though. Edited June 25, 2016 by Mango Pervdragon Quote Link to comment
SupaNipplez Posted June 25, 2016 Share Posted June 25, 2016 (edited) Check and make sure your mic is set as your default device and your default communication device. How-to: Control Panel/Sound/Recording Highlight your microphone Click the arrow besides the "set default" button Make sure both the options are selected. If this doesn't work let me know and I will do some more searching for solutions. Edited June 25, 2016 by SupaNipplez Quote Link to comment
enigma# Posted June 25, 2016 Share Posted June 25, 2016 What kind of microphone is this? Is it being routed through your sound card or USB? All this default stuff doesn't really do much unless it's being hogged by WASAPI, ASIO or another driver. Quote Link to comment

All this default stuff doesn't really do much unless it's being hogged by WASAPI, ASIO or another driver. It's a webcam. I don't have a sound card. If it helps, Both SLAM and my mic worked earlier this week without any problems. Then people started complaining that my mic sounded terrible (I paid no attention since it was a webcam) and that my music sounded like it was in a wash-machine. Now every few seconds, they both turn robotic then they stop and rinse and repeat. Quote Link to comment
enigma# Posted June 25, 2016 Share Posted June 25, 2016 Ok, if that's the case there are a few possibilities It is possible that the webcam may not be getting sufficient bandwidth in order to operate correctly. I would suggest changing out the USB port it is plugged into. If possible and if it is new enough, use a USB 3.0 port (it will be more than enough bandwidth). Avoid using a front port if at all possible. You could try updating your driver, although chances are it's not that. Whats your sampling rate and bitrate set at for your webcam? Quote Link to comment

Plugged it up in the back. Didn't change a thing. 2. Drivers are up-to-date 3. Don't see how a webcam's sampling/bitrate can affect SLAM, which is a software to play music through CSGO, as well Quote Link to comment
Vel'Roz Posted June 25, 2016 Author Share Posted June 25, 2016 I just did a reset on my PC to see if that would fix it. Didn't work. I might just do a full reset. I really dont want to but I don't have much of a choice. I'll check back in a few hours. Quote Link to comment
Vel'Roz Posted June 25, 2016 Author Share Posted June 25, 2016 Well that didnt work. Another hour wasted Quote Link to comment
