Ok this seems kinda dumb but serious though, how do you guys set up your audio on your PC? like for example Discord is 100%, Game is 50% and PC master volume is 30% etc, because I don't know how to have it for easy adjustment say your friends are ear raping you in discord or you load up your new FPS game for the first time and you load it to the match and you get deafened by the gunshots, do you guys turn down game volume or PC volume and what do you generally set everthing as? This has me annoyed all the time of how to have it and what is easier. So help me please lmao, what do you guys do?

Wow 2%? that's low what do you have you games at? 100%? or do you have a really good/loud headset?

Depends on your speakers. Personally in the settings i have main volume at 100% and i reduce game volume to usually 50% while playing with Discord. If i have skype on then even skype sound at max it is so low that i need to put the in game volume to 20% or lower. If i use in-game voice chat they are usually well balance with ingame sound level so i put the game volume to 80% and up.

 

But the physical master volume of my speakers rarely go over 10% as i might blow up my window glass again and honestly it's too loud and dangerous for the ears.

 

So long story short i put the physical sound volume to what i like to be the max.

Windows main sound is maxed and i adjust each games accordingly.

 

Example i have Heroes of the storm at 100% volume in the settings. in game voice chat or not i do not need to touch it. If i use skype i reduce the game main volume to 12%. If i use discord i reduce to 50% or 60% depending if my creaming friend is on the channel or not ?

Yeah understandable, my headset must be really load or something, to be fair I have a laptop right now so that might affect it in some way, I don't know. I normally have my master at 100 and my headset at 100, discord between 10-25 depending on the friends mic loudness and my game for example War Thunder on like 3-5%. I think i might have my master at 50% do give more headroom in games and stuff if i need to change them.
