Mic Problems

[SirGazz47]

Hello,

I have a Neewer NW-700 Mic and it worked perfectly fine with my old Windows 7 PC. I have recently upgraded to a Windows 10 PC. With my new PC the Mic is really quiet and I have to scream for it to get to the 3rd bar. I have the volume all the way up to 100 and I don't know what is wrong. If you know this issue please reply.

Thanks.

are you plugging it into an external audio interface? or straight to your motherboard?

Also after seeing that it's a condenser microphone, please make sure that
1 - Your cable isn't damaged
2 - it's actually getting the 48v it needs
3 - you have the correct driver installed for your soundcard/ audio interface

I am plugging it into my Neewer NW-100 Phantom Power unit, which is plugged directly into my motherboard

Check with a meter that the power unit is supplying the correct 48v
otherwise to double check that it it's not a driver problem I'd advise you to install ASIO4ALL then install Audacity/FL studio or any Digital Audio Workstation that can utilize ASIO and load up ASIO and configure it use your microphone as input and test if the volume is correct there.
