strayshadow 81 Posted March 16, 2014 (edited) Hey! I'm using a Microsoft LifeChat LX-3000 headset with integrated microphone (USB). (This headset has given me grief since I bought it!!!) It works with TS3, Skype, Steam Chat etc... pretty much any VOIP I've used it works. My voice also comes through fine when recorded on Fraps and in Adobe Soundbooth. I have checked it is set as the default device under Playback Devices. I have checked it is set as the input device on Steam. I have also tested the mic through Steam Chat and it works fine. Yes I am pressing Capslock to speak and the other players are within range. When I try to use Direct Chat in any server on DayZ SA no one can hear me =/ I have checked the input volumes too to be sure they're loud enough. Yep I have searched the forum prior to making this post and the only found solutions were the two written above. Edited March 16, 2014 by Merry_Mac Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Black Dynamite 75 Posted March 16, 2014 It should be set as your default communications device... not playback device. I don't think that's it but worth checking. You should also make sure you have voice chat enabled in steam. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
sausagekingofchicago 4711 Posted March 17, 2014 Go to configure and then click on audio. Note the current audio volume setting on the slide bar and then click on the auto adjust. Follow the instructions. When done, see if it changed the mic volume at all. If it did, the game is picking up your mic so at least its not an external issue. You may also want to double check your mic key binding. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
littlebro66 2 Posted March 17, 2014 Some servers don't allow direct chat. Check and see that direct chat is enabled on the server first. See if your mic works on Side Chat and if it does it's just the server Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
