Hi,

I've seen a lot of post on this problem but still no fix working for me.

MB: Msi z97 pc mate - OS: Windows 7 - Version of Realtek HD audio driver is 6.0.1.7399

Mic is plugged in correctly in the rear pink jack, appears in Sound devices, appears in realtek audio manager, not muted, and work perfectly in teamspeak. But in the sound devices panel the green bar is barely going up, and in other program like skype or the windows recorder, the mic volume is as well extremly low.

So the mic is here, it's working (no hardware problem), but for some reason the input is very low (except on teamspeak).

Tried to unistall/reinstall realtek driver, tried to separate all jacks in realtek audio manager, tried to unplug the front panel audio connector on the MB, tried usb soundcard, tried different sound format ...

Any solutions ?

Thanks for the help

Hi,
have you tried configuring the Mic via Control Panel/Hardware and Sound/Manage Audio devices?
