Microphone Spiking..

NoObMaGiC

<div class="IPBDescription">..</div> I'm having troubles with my microphone. First when i talk, well its spiking..
people are always telling me that im lagging but.. im habitualy playing in servers where i 20ms so..

Of course i have no loss, but sometimes im getting like 1-5choke max. I presume that i should play with my setting like "rate" and all those commands but im so lost in those that i prefer dont touch it at all cause i believe if i play with them ill make my microphone worst lol

I'm also playing other mods, like CS. And people are hearing me well. So i dont know whats really going on <!--emo&???--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/confused.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='confused.gif' /><!--endemo-->

I, sometimes, get on some ventrilo server, and my mic is working so well that i just cant believe that when i play ns it sound like ****..

EDIT: Last day, someone told me to turn "voice_loopback" on so i could really hear what my microphone was doing. So i did, and i saw my icon flashing, but my voice was ok.. i mean, the only prob is because my icon is flashing so people cant hear ya...

some words are missing when im talking :PPPP


HELP!

This might seem like a daft question but are you holding in the button and not just tapping it?

i played with a guy last night who told me to push cl_updaterate 30 and cl_cmdrate 30. Both were 15.


I BELIEVE that my mic works fine right now, as i saw with voice_loopback 1 <!--emo&:p--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/tounge.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='tounge.gif' /><!--endemo-->
