If you're using a Rock Candy controller and are in the Xbox Beta program, you're probably wondering how to adjust y.

Unfortunately most of the top-end headsets don't have any mic monitoring features built in. Windows 10: Search for Sound and open the Sound control panel app, this will take you to the same screen if you are unable to right click the speaker icon in. Okay now this is a VERY specific problem. Then there's the other side of the spectrum, people saying to buy hundreds of dollars worth of audio amps and kits (which I have no idea about) in order to achieve latency free monitoring.ĭoes anyone know if there is a 'cheapish' way to do this? I recently purchased an open back headset which is great for hearing my own voice, but now my PC running like a turbo engine playing games is getting annoying in the background, which is making me want to switch back to a closed back design. Whenever I google this, people's responses are to enable 'listen to this device' in your mic settings in W10, however, this has a noticeable latency delay and is incredibly annoying. I know it might be a bit of a niche feature to want, but I've genuinely grown to hate not being able to hear my own voice with noise isolating headsets, especially at night when I need to keep quiet. I came to love this feature because it meant that I could be aware of the volume of my voice despite the earcups creating an isolated seal around my ears. It meant that my own voice was played back to me through the headset in real time with zero latency. Many years ago in my Xbox 360 days I had a Turtle Beach headset which had a neat feature called mic monitoring.
