This is the first USB headset i've owned and i have to say i'm disappointed. With my old analog headset i was able to turn on "Noise Suppresion" and "Acoustic Echo Cancellation" in the Realtek HD audio manager and the microphone would sound great. Very clear with no background noise at all.

But with this USB headset that isnt possible, there is such a lack of options. I've downloaded the drivers for the headset but it makes no difference.

So i'm wondering if anyone can help me reduce/remove the buzzing/humming noise that comes with using my mic? If i'm not able to resolve this issue im going to return the headset and stick with an analog one.

Any advice is welcome, thank you for your time.
