Microphone

[Maciek95PL 10]

I've got such a problem that my microphone is somehow recording sound from my computer, even if I turned off my speakers.Could anyone tell me is it normal and can I change it somehow, so it will record only what it actually "hears"?

Which version of Windows do you have? Try disabling Stereo mix in your sound input volume settings.

I've got Windows XP, but disabling Stereo mix worked. Thank you very much!

I'm not sure this is related, but when I plug in my headset while ArmA 2 is running the sound will not switch to it, and remain on the speakers. This only happens while I play ArmA 2, in any other game, or while on the desktop, sound will switch automatically to my headset immediately once I pluyg it in. Can someone help me with this?

Try plugging in your headset before you start ArmA2 ?

1+ for you

but i think you cant solve this as the same happens with stuf like joysticks and trackIR (also in BF2, etc. this happens). What you can try is to re-detect the new connected device by goin back to option > controls after the device has been plugged in (this works for trackIR activation ingame)

ok i have a other one that might be related to this post.

if i use TS latest version it seems that when i speak in the microphone people tend to hear my ingame sound tanks guns whatever enviorment sounds that is going on at that moment it makes it so that people find this anoying.

i tried to figure this out by correcting my sound input volume settings but it still seems not to be working for some reason.

i have XP proffecional last servince pack updated, some one cares to test this out with me so i can sove it for once and for all ....

Not that its related to this topic but: with voice activation the volume of the speakers might open the mic chanel and this is annoying, you have to use push to talk or lower the speaker volume altogether. (settings >option> capture) <here you can listen to what other people hear so you can test the output sound and mic volume etc.

i have push to talk on all the time it happens when i push to talk and want to say something, peope tend to say that i need to lower my speakers while my speakers are off, when i use a headset with mike and play multiplayer i don't activate my main speakers.

so when i puch they hear me rather verry quiet and the ingame sound is noicy ....

ah you want to turn up your windows mic volume: > control panel (switch clasic view) find "sounds" > recoding look for the mic and slide it up higher or go "advanced" and turn on "mic boost" and test again in between!
