Quickcam Orbit AF - Microphone is too sensitive

I've uninstalled and reinstalled the drivers and it doesn't seem to make any difference whatsoever.  I appologize if this is a repeated post but I can't seem to find anything that is exactly what I speak of.  My problem has nothing to do with any IM programs.  Just doing a quick capture brings on a loud scratchy noise whenever there's a higher pitched noise.

 

I've got the microphone turned all the way down and it still picks up people walking on the floor upstairs.  I've tried turning on and off the background noise filter and that made no difference whatsoever.  Can someone please help me figure out how to fix this?  

 

Thank-you for your time,

Nathalie

Welcome to the Logitech Community Webcam Forum cameronnat! :smileyhappy:


Does this issue occur when the camera is installed in UVC Mode?



Thanks.

Hi there, sorry it took me so long to get back to you.  Just uninstalled the drivers and let XP install it's own.  The microphone is exactly the same, too sensitive :smileysad:

Re: Quickcam Orbit AF - Microphone is too sensitive

With reference to this QuickCam® Team FAQ, what is the "REV_" number of your camera?



Thanks.
