Tech question, is there anywhere other than the obvious Windows settings where I can fiddle with Microphone levels?
Various Microphones I use on my PC all sound very quiet, even ones that are perfectly usable on my phone. I have the mixer volume set at 100 and the gain set all the way up (2?)
You could try using VoiceMeeter Banana or its various other permutations to add more gain / compression through a virtual audio device. It may even work as a VST host, I've forgotten.
