Never even heard of Audacity, but it looks like just the thing for digitising audio tapes?Īnything that goes through USB will digitise on this side of the USB cable. I'm plainly well out of my pay grade here! Stand alone mic connects to USB Would a preamp help, or does the mic do the digitising.
No gain control knobs to be found anywhere on existing webcam or mic.
Not tried Audacity, but someone has given me another webcam, which seems to work a bit better. I've played with the Zoom microphone settings to no avail. This has cured the problems I was having with people letting me know that they could see me talking but could not hear me. In Zoom settings I have the microphone volume close to full, turned off Automatically adjust microphone volume and Suppress background noise set to medium.

The microphone gain control on the microphone is turned up to full gain. As a result I bought a USB microphone with a gain control on it and a cardoid detection area, so not directional. If there are two people it is hopeless for one of them or sometimes both. I have a built in laptop microphone that is very directional and you need to be in just the right place for it to work well. Lastly, what happens with other programs? When you record into something like Audacity, what do you get? Zoom has various clever audio settings internally - worth a fiddle. Anyone got any ideas? next door neighbours probably getting fed up of me shouting!Ī lot of microphones have a gain control knob nowadays - sometimes not always obvious! I've been into settings/sound/input volume and set it at 100%, but when I do a test speaking at normal volume it only goes up to ~15% on the webcam, 3% on the other. I've got both a webcam with built in microphone and a stand alone, same with both. Whenever I'm on a Zoom meeting I have to speak very loudly to be heard by other participants.
