AUDIO MIXER | Combined Audio Control

I'm ready to send mine back because of actual sound artifacts that creep in with browser sourced audio (YouTube, twitch, etc). Same with Discord and the game I play. The mic via XLR remains clear however. It's frustrating to have to restart your PC in mid cast. It's the only way to cleanly fix the issue (restarting Windows Audio works but causes the mixer to be unresponsive). Ignoring the inability to process usb sourced mic audio (which I've been accepted too give this a real try), the instability is damning.

One other annoying feature of the Mixer: When your system idles/locks due to inactivity (NOT sleep/hibernate, just auto-lock), and you log back in, the audio from all channels are scratchy/distorted. Fixed by restarting the Windows Audio service, but still, why?...

AUDIO MIXER | Combined Audio Control

MaximusisbackI forwarded it to the team, seems like a huge oversight. Update: So, Razer Tier 2 came back with this response. *With regards to your concern that the Mixer is not picking up the Mic signal coming from the PC and only picks up when directly connected to the mixer, This is a technical limitation. If the USB microphone does not have a 3.5mm audio out, then the audio cannot be processed through the mixer as the mixer only takes in the following analog connections.* *Analog Connections* *Microphone in from one of the following sources:* *XLR Balanced Jack* *6.35 mm TRS unbalanced Jack* *3.5 mm TS unbalanced Jack* *3.5 mm TRS Line In* *3.5 TRS Line Out* *3.5 mm TRS Headphone Out* *The workaround that you have used is correct. You will need to use the 3.5mm analog out from the microphone and connect it to the Mixer's line in.* *With regards to interference, the issue the Razer Audio Mixer does provide ground loop isolators to address the

Razer Audio Mixer: ...it doesn't support USB microphones?

DekadesOk, I'll do my best! You did, and I'm very grateful for the clarifications. I mean you're leaving me with no hope here, but yeah, I'm grateful. XD I have one major question, and a couple minor ones. I'll DM you directly if that's all right? If not I can ask here, I just didn't want to spam the forum with a Q&A.

Razer Audio Mixer: ...it doesn't support USB microphones?

DekadesYeah this one can be a frustrating topic. It's one of those things, if you know, you know, but if you don't it sucks. The mixer is an analog audio mixer. A USB mic is a digital source. You would need to connect analog mics in order to mix the audio. Windows itself without the aid of special software is unable to have more than one USB mic at a time. It's a limitation of Windows and not of the mixer. I hope this helps. I hear you. Please help me understand this conundrum though. If the mixer: A. Can process multiple digital channels from a PC source, like Chat, Music, System, etc; B. Has the ability to soft-map those channels to whichever source you want; C. And if the PC already has a Mic channel that, in my example, is active via a USB mic; Why can't the mixer threat the existing mic signal second and discrete "digital mic" channel that, when utilized, cuts the analog mic signal that's native on board, and replaces it with the digital mic channel, since it's a channel like

jefelumpdoes it work with razer usb mics and headsets through the synapse software or do you have to use an xlr mic and 3.5mm headphones through the device? See my above reply. Short version: No, but I'm hoping it's addressable via Synapse update. My post goes into more detail here and in int Broadcasters forum.

It doesn't recognize USB microphone input. If you have any USB mic, they've ever made, like the Seiren Pro, Mini, X, or headset like the Nari Wireless, Krakens, etc... The board is apparently incapable of seeing them. For "Mic Input" it ONLY sees audio for the XLR or 3.5mm ports in the mixer itself. Support/their manual says to take a "USB-powered" microphone, plug the USB into the PC for power... Then run a 3.5mm audio lead from the mic too the front mic port in the mixer. Let that image sink in for a minute. I've been waiting on a response on this for three days from them with pure radio silence as their response. It's either a stunningly ridiculous oversight, a moronic design choice, or there IS a way to do it that no one seems to have figured out in support or in The recent device reviews the last week. The mixer can see other PC audio sources like game audio, chat audio, music apps... Why on earth can it not see a USB mic the same way? Let the buyer beware. This is a ball dro
