  • The Meta Quest 3 is a massive step forward for standalone VR technology, however it has a massive problem with the Microphone. In this short video I show you how you can get around this issue with something most of us have sitting in our houses.

    Pop filter foam is very transparent unless compressed, so I doubt it'll make the headset overheat

    Unfortunately since this Meta decided not to give us the option of putting up with plosives or handling it like this, and decided to just cut the microphone volume all the way down so it's quiet to mask the plosives. Which is fine if you're *only* talking, but it's now always gonna be drowned out by any game audio.

    My mic is extremely quiet in recordings but when i record with OBS and use my mic it sounds completely fine but i can only use my mic in OBS if i am recording steamvr and my mic doesnt work in OBS when casting from oculus
    what do i do?

    add to the title that you provide a fix for the microphone. or add a mic to the thumbnail. People who will search for a solution for this problem might not click on the video. And I was tempted not to click on the video, as I assumed that it was probably related to you not being able to stream.

      @u4f8hfsh498 it’s good, the lack of enterable buildings is a bit of a letdown, I am interested to see what they do with the second half of the map

      I highly recommend the antlion wireless Modmic, although no external mics record directly into the Q3 (annoying as hell) I use mine to record all my voice to a PC and then sync it up in post

    I just want to know how to make my mic louder and sound better cause when music is playing in the background while I’m recording a game and I check the footage I can barley hear myself and I don’t wear a mask

    • @Yorickkinda
      @Yorickkinda  8 місяців тому

      Yeah this happened with the Quest 2 as well, if you’re able to turn down the in-game audio, that helps a bit (especially if you use earbuds)
      But also, you have to really project your voice to have it cut over the ingame audio.
      I am personally waiting for dedicated volume sliders on recordings for game audio and mic

    Does a disposable mask work?

    • @Yorickkinda
      @Yorickkinda  9 місяців тому +1

      They do, yes. Although I found that disposable masks can sometimes make a crinkle sound when they’re new which gets picked up over the microphone. However if they’re a little older and worn in, they work just as well as the fabric ones.
