Corsair Raptor HS30 microphone problems


Pazode

Recommended Posts

I bought the HS30 yesterday as my previous headset broke.

I literally have to put the mic on my mouth so others can hear me in skype. Ive tried a lot of stuff to fix this but it just hasnt worked out for me. Im wondering if anyone else has or had this problem as it's very annoying and frustrating. If there is no fix ill just have to return them back and find something else :(

So ive been using it for the last few days, and i have found all the boosted options possible, and the mic is just super quiet again, the boom is not exactly positionable either...any advice before i take it back?

 

Kind regards

I had the exact problem but after about an hour of messing with the software, i decided to look at the cables. Turns out i hadnt plugged it in properly. I wiped the connectors and then made sure they were pushed all the way in to the slots. You should see no silver and it takes quite a bit of force to push the connectors in. This fixed the issue for me.

I purchased my Raptor HS30 headset about four months ago, used it a bit, then put them away until two nights ago, and now suddenly the mic isn't working.

 

After checking every possibility online and with my system, I finally tried the headset on two other computers in my house, and STILL the mic doesn't work.

 

I guess it's just a REALLY low-end product after all.

Hi Just seeing if anyone has solved this as I've already sent a ticket into corsair.

 

I have teamspeak on my mobile I managed to figure out that the low mic volume is only when using the y splitter you use to connect to the pc. If I connect the 4 pole all in one plug directly to my phone the mic is fine.

 

When I use the y splitter to connect just the mic to my phone the mic is too quiet again.

I know I am a year late but I just bought the headset and i had the same issue.

What bigmonmulgrew says is true. But you can make it work with the splitter as well.

When i plug in the mic, it asks if its a front mic or a headset. I selected front mic and it was not quite anymore. It was the oposite, too loud and with echo.

 

In windows, when you go to recording devices you can see 2 active recording devices. One "Microphone" and one "Stereo Mix". disabling the Microphone and having only the stero mix enabled fixed the echo issue.

Now they seem to work as it should
