Headset mic is VERY quiet

[Bassblaster505]

The Microphone on my headset is very quiet and hard to hear, i make YouTube videos and my voice is always drowned out by the game sounds and i was asking is there a way to boost the volume of it? by about 400% and i did the Recording Devices>Microphone> Levels and its already at 100% volume.
And my headset is a Turtle Beach PX3
Thanks.

hmm there's an option under sound settings that will lower your mic's volume by 50%+ when using any communication software, streaming ones included I think.

go to Control Panel->Sounds->Communications tab, make sure to select "Do nothing", see if that improves your mic's volume level.

Its already at do nothing, any other ideas?

hmm beyond enabling "Mic Boost" (usually under your Sound card's software) I can't think of anything else.

And how do i get there?

Either in your sound card software (in my case I simply click on the icon tray named "Realtek HD Sound Manager" -> Mic -> Enable Mic Boost.

Once I had to enable it on a different driver version, it was under control panel->sound->recording->select Mic->properties->levels->Mic Boost.

i tried both of those and no where does it say mic boost anywhere
