How to disable noise suppression when an application is using the microphone.

Hi,

Whenever an application is using my microphone, all the audio that plays gets suppressed and muffled and nearly quiet, there was an option to disable this before, but I just don't know how to disable it.

Disabling the options such as Audio Enhancements will make it normal for around 2 seconds before it becomes muffled again.

    There is a dozen different AI noise cancellation solutions from different companies bundled with computers. ASUS may have it within Sonic Studio or DTS or Dolby or Realtek Audio Console.

    Hello! Thank you so mcuh, I didn't know this.

    Turning it off on MyASUS has helped a lot, it isn't cutting out the beginning of my sentences anymore, but it is still there cutting out some noise, so I'm assuming that there is a third AI noise-cancelling thing? I have checked and this laptop does indeed have DTS Audio Processing, but it won't let me adjust any of the settings. I can't click any of the buttons except "Settings" which takes me to "About DTS" :(

    Some DTS app is for playback and for headphones only.

    There is a million different AI noise cancellation software solutions. Each computer maker may even have different ones for different computer models. You may also look for Intel SST or nVidia broadcast. Basically impossible for us who doesn't have your specific computer model to figure out.

    But you should turn the enhanacements back on because that was the default setting. Toggle on and off enhancements but leave it back on. That makes it easier for you to figure things out yourself.

    I have finally fixed it!

    I'm really new to all of this audio stuff, so sorry :'''0 My ASUS laptop did also have Realtek Audio Console, I didn't realise that I could have more than one! I turned off AI noise reduction on that too, and I still had the problem. But I realised that when I used my microphone audio input and switched it's channel to my computer it was fixed, so it was something to do with my ASUS audio input and speaker AI noise cancellation. I honestly don't understand why the audio inputs behave differently :'''',,,,0 I didn't know that was a thing but I can just use my audio-technica audio input from now on :>

    Thank you so much for all of your help and teaching me about the other audio options on my laptop.

    I know it's been 1000 years since you posted this but I totally related to your anger because I also have a lot of paper weights. Get anywhere?

    I've been reading this stuff above I guess I'm missing something. Bought a separate sound card thinking it would bypass everything but I know my motherboard has built in real tech and I have played with that but it didn't fix anything and I have been trying so long I am losing my mind. If somebody reads this I have cash app! If somebody would do a zoom or a Skype with me and I play my piano and you can't hear a single thing and then we go through the list and fix it so I can do a live test at the same time?

    I'm sorry if I'm babbling but I have been trying to fix this problem for close to two years and I just found this thread somehow I think I used the right search term.

    My motherboard is a gigabyte Z390 designaire V1 I know getting little oldish

    I built the computer - parts fm microcenter

    I'm going to keep reading all the stuff above but if there is a soul out there with a little empathy for a man that is absolutely losing his marbles more so than usual I would be eternally grateful and seriously throw you a little something.

    Thank you so much for your time i'm going to keep checking because I've been going out of my mind for about two years and I've even paid people online to try and help me and people just think I'm crazy. I can't even turn a radio on behind me it just disappears like magic. I'm just going to cut and paste this everywhere and I so do appreciate your help I'd even be happy with a little hope. Barry.
