Windows 10 Home Microphone Issues
Hello guys, before i made an account here i looked everywhere (at least i think everywhere) for an answer. I'm a game streamer. I own a ASUS ROG FHD 120 Hz i7-7700HQ 3.80 GHz (up to 4 GHz) 64GB DDR4 1TB SATA 7200 RPM + 256GB SSD nVidia GeForce GTX 1080 8GB GDDR5X VR Ready. The RIG came with Licensed Windows 10 Home Edition. When i'm live streaming/recording microphone audio cuts every 3-5 seconds, cuts the beginning or the end of a word. I've tried 4 different headphones, professional gaming headphones with the same result. The only microphone that worked was the laptop integrated one (thou sometimes that one cuts too) and my logitech webcam mic which works very well actually. BUT for now i don't have a special quiet gaming room, and the open mic picks every noise, like the tv, the toilet flush lol, cars outside, my gf speaking on the phone, etc. What i have tried so far : any sound option available on my windows, any sound option available on OBS (the program i use to record/stream), reinstalled every audio driver, tried with the mic really close to the mouth ( thou mics are not suppose to be really close to the mouth but down to the chin), run hardware and device troubleshooter, and some more option i don't remember. Haven't tried a wired mic for now (i wont buy one since i already spent A LOT of money on professional gear to create HQ streams/recordings) but again, i don't want my mic to pick every sound around me. When i'll have my gaming room i'll have no problem with an open mic if that will be enough to get a very good mic audio. If you need some more information which can help you figure things out or at least try to, let me know. Thank you so much in advance.
