FOR MAC USERS check privacy settings to allow Shadow to use the mic.
EVERYONE
(On Shadow)
Feedback bar will be at 50%, no matter what. This is normal.
- Enable your mic via Quick Menu (Microphone section, not USB Peripherals)
- Right click the speaker icon in your taskbar > press "Sounds"
- Switch to the tab "Recording", right click Shadows Virtual mic (External Microphone Headphone), click "Properties"
- Switch to the tab "Levels" and make sure that the icon isn't red (muted)
- Switch to the tab "Listen" (tick "Listen to this device" and apply)
- Depending on result:
a. If you hear yourself, untick the box and apply settings. Your mic works now.
b. If you hear nothing, restart your Shadow. - If it still doesn't work contact support.
-- If you have a USB Microphone/Headset you can alternatively use USB Forwarding and DISABLE the "Microphone" function. USB Forwarding should only be used with a stable internet connection and a good upload speed. Your ping/latency to shadow should stay below 32ms for it to work without issues.
