Just a little heads up for all you PC gamers who use Vent.
The following settings seem to work all the time, everytime. Give em a look and try them out and you'll be hassle-free in Vent.
Basic Sounds & Audio Setup
Goto control-panel / sounds & audio / audio tab / volume button / select ‘options’ in the menu / check ‘advanced’ / select ‘properties’ / select ‘playback’ radio button / check all boxes
select ‘record’ radio button / check all boxes / click OK
In the playback list of devices – check the ‘mute’ box under Microphone. Close window
Click the volume button in the ‘sound recording’ section. If the check boxes display ‘Select’ then check the box under Microphone. If the check boxes display ‘Mute’ then check all boxes EXCEPT ‘Microphone’ and ‘Mute All’
Other possible settings may be included with the sound cards setup program.
Temporarily disable any other sound/voice altering programs (if in use)
Generic Voice Problems
Make sure your soundcard drivers are up to date. If the soundcard is ‘onboard’ then check with your computer manufacturer’s (or mobo’s) website for any updates to drivers. If the soundcard is an add-in then check with the soundcards web site.
In vent setup, try setting the input/output devices to ‘use directsound’ and setting the name to the soundcard you’re using. (also try different combinations of checking/unchecking ‘use directsound’)
In the ‘hardware mixer’ section > set mixer={soundcard you’re using}, mux=recording, line=microphone
