How to Improve Audio and Microphone Quality in Windows

 

The microphone and audio quality on your computer may be poor, even if you are using high-end audio input and output devices. Fortunately, Windows 10 and 11 have a lot of built-in improvements to help you get a superior audio experience. We've put together a number of tips to help you improve the sound and microphone quality on your Windows PC.

1. Improve Sound Performance

Windows 11 allows you to manually optimize audio features for each audio device connected to your PC. Follow these steps to improve the audio performance for your output/input devices:


Go to the Settings app by right-clicking on the Start menu.

Go to the "System" section in the left pane, then click on the "Sound" option on the right.

Select "All Sound Devices" under "Advanced".

Select the audio device you want to enhance in the Output Devices or Input Devices sections.

Scroll down to find the "Enhance Audio" option under "Output/Input Settings" and click it to enable.

In some cases, enabling Audio Enhancement can cause even more audio issues on your Windows computer. If this happens, repeat the same steps to disable it before moving on to the next solution.


2. Adjust Enhancement Settings

Windows 11 audio devices like Realtek offer audio enhancement features. To enable them, follow these steps:


Open Options -> System -> Sound -> Advanced" and select Advanced Sound Settings.

Click on a device such as "Speakers" that we select here, then select "Properties".

Go to the "Enhancements" tab, make sure "Immediate Mode" is enabled, and select the sound effects you like from the list, such as "Voice Suppression" or "Pitch Shift", then click "Apply" to save the settings.

3. Increase the microphone volume level

Poor microphone sound quality can occur for two reasons: a problem with the quality of the microphone array or a low volume level of the microphone you are using. Fix this situation by following the steps below.


Make sure you enable "Enhanced Audio" for your "Microphone Array" in the "Input" section as shown above.

If the above solution does not improve the sound quality of the microphone array, try increasing the volume. Find the Control Panel app in the Start menu and open it by clicking on it.

Select the "Hardware and Sound" option.

Under Audio, click Manage Audio Devices.

At the top of the pop-up, go to the "Recording" tab, then click on the microphone you are using and select "Properties".

Go to the Levels tab to find the Microphone volume panel, change the volume by dragging the right arrow, then click Apply to save the changes before closing the window.

4. Enable spatial audio

Enabling Surround Sound simulates surround sound and also improves the sound quality of the audio device. To enable it, follow these steps:


Open "Settings -> System -> Sound".

Select the output device you want to change, then click on the arrow next to it.

Scroll down to the "Spatial Audio" section, click the down arrow next to "Type," and select "Windows Sonic for Headphones."

In Windows 10, to view this option, you need to click the Device Properties button under Select an output device.

If standard Windows 3D audio is not satisfactory, you can download and enable other spatial audio formats from the Microsoft Store. For example, DTS Sound Unbound will help you experience immersive sound while playing with headphones. If you're a cinephile, you can download the Dolby Access audio format to hear more detail and realism while watching a movie.


5. Activate Mono Audio

Mono audio makes the right and left audio channels play the same audio at the same time. As a result, it can be a useful feature for improving sound quality, especially when using headphones. Enable this feature as shown below.


Open Settings -> System -> Sound".

Find the "Mono Audio" option under "Output" and turn it on to combine both audio channels.

If you are using Windows 10, you need to go to "Settings -> Accessibility -> Audio" to find this option.

Gold Or Bitcoin

Image
 What’s the better store of wealth? Gold has seen quite a surge in price lately, exceeding $2400 an ounce. Bitcoin at $70000 has almost returned to its all time high as well. So there's definitely a big desire these days for alternative stores of wealth that aren't the U.S. dollar. This begs the question — which of the two is the better dollar alternative? Gold's popularity Let's talk about gold first. Gold is timeless and has been used as a store of wealth for millennia. There's actual physics based reasons that it's so popular: It's scarce. Its density makes it hard to fake. It has a distinct appearance (other rare metals like platinum and palladium tend to look a lot like silver). It doesn't tarnish like silver. It's not reactive so it won't randomly decay or combust. It also helps that it...
