i have recently got a very cheap microphone form amazon and when i talk to people over internet (mainly skype) everyone always says my voice is very quite. is there a problem with my set-up or is it just a crap mic?

Hi JJ, yes I would say it's the cheap mic, if you have a Radio Shack in your area you might go there & see if they have a better quality one. Thier prices are pretty reasonable. A headphone mic combination works really well with things like Skype. BJ
Is your computer ill? Does it need the special care of top notch computer Doctors? The VirtualDoctor is in the house.
my god are computers expensive. i seem to have to replace everything, lol. well i suppose i will get a new one then, but i don't think radio shack exist in the UK . I’ll buy it when i can be forced to part with the cash, even if it isn't that much.

cheap microphones will not reproduce the exact sound of your voice very well. There are many factors to take into consideration .... something a more expensive microphone will do for you.
I'm willing to bet moving the mic closer to your mouth will solve the problem. Perhaps speaking a bit louder too.
If you experience feedback, that is the loop of your voice coming out of your speakers and going back into the microphone .... setup and direction can fix that.
well i have messed around with the settings a bit and turned that 20db boost on. I think it may have helped but i will need to test it first. I’ll tell you if it fixed it.
