Sound card for Sennheiser HD4.40BT and ModMic 4.0

danakahawkeye

Hi all,

 

I have recently posted on here about having very bad microphone quality from the ModMic 4.0, I decided to just leave it and let my friends suffer with the terrible sound. However recently i have noticed that my motherboards on board sound is just not enough for me or my preferences, especially since I can no longer get the raw Nahemic 2.0 software and adjust levels properly. So I looked into getting either an external or internal sound card and after contacting creative labs they came to the conclusion that none of their sound cards can drive the ModMic 4.0 at the correct voltages. Can anyone give any suggestions on what would be a good high quality alternative? Please note that i am already using a USB sound card for the ModMic and I still have to put it to +30db gain and 100% volume to get my voice to be audible at all on the line, I also have to apply an additional gain in each app that I use E.G Teamspeak, Discord, ect.
