Laptop microphone doesn't work properly?
Well, it used to work fine, but now whatever i record sounds terrible. Playing a guitar into it sounds literally like you are just tuning up, basically it sounds like everythings being majorly compressed or recorded at the wrong bitrate, but upon a quick look it didn't look as though this was the case.
Now I don't just mean in professional audio programs, cause that soundcard never worked in those but this is in EVERYTHING, even msn and that free recorder thing that comes with windows.
There is one thing I think might have caused it but I don't know why it would!
Sometimes I use an external sound card since I am a music producer and therefore disable the internal one. Could this have messed up the inbuilt microphone. I guess I could buy an XLR mic to use with the Ext. But I'd rather save my yen :)
Ahh great. Seems it was set to "DVD quality" which this sound card can't even support! (To be honest, there's not a lot it can do!) Must auto configure it to that when I plug in the Ext or something.
Thanks for a quick response!

Make sure your sample rate is set to default settings which is suppose to be on the best settings. It is in the advanced settings from the sound and audio devices option in control panel. you can also find your recording device in the settings there and change settings for recording device. Good luck.

nicely, that would desire to be simply by many motives. in all probability the microphone would desire to be actual grew to become on, or in all probability you are able to desire to establish a driving force of kinds. Or in all probability you do not have a microphone in any know, and your computer in basic terms has recording utility for some reason. try pressing Ctrl + PrtScn to repeat the reveal image on your clipboard. Then paste that in the time of Paint or some thing and save it and placed up it on Photobucket or something. That'd make it much less complicated for adult males and females human beings to work out what utility it is and what's extremely going on.
