Try the Microphone Boost feature, it might not be available in the current stable release, but the test version has it.
Standard setting is 1, its a multiplier. (1x1,x2,x3,etc)

I'm having that problem too. Unfortunately the boost doesn't seem to be a good solution because it is relative to the game sounds, so when the game sounds cut out, the microphone sound goes down in volume too.

To explain what I mean: I'm trying to record audio commentary on "World Of Tanks" game replays. By using the microphone boost at 9, I got my voice loud enough during the action part of the replay, when there are game sounds in the background. But when the replay ends and I want to add a few words at the end, when there are no game sounds, the mircrophone gets extremely quiet till you can hardly hear my voice anymore.

hm good point. I'm also having this proble since the only thing i can hear from my recording of me talking (and i talk preety loud in game) is a murmur equivalent to what a sick man would sound like.
