Hello! ive been having this issue for YEARS now, this issue affected my youtube career.
So i bought this Microphone Fifine AmpliGame AM8, its USB microphone
Here's amazon link https://www.amazon.com/FIFINE-Microphone-Headphones-YouTube-AmpliGame-AM8/dp/B0BMFQP2ZZ
I plugged it on my laptop: Acer nitro 5, Model: Nitro AN515-58
And it had weird crackling sound, but i fixed it by turning off audio enchantments.
but now it got a good sound but it cuts in and out in random times.
Heres exapmles:
I try changing sample rate (Hz) for the microphone still doesnt works.
I then tried the microphone on my old HP laptop,
and surprisingly, it works perfectly there without any issues.
weird thing is that when i plugged it in my old laptop the audio enchantment feature was not there.
Here are pictures of the USB ports for both laptops:
Screenshots of Both Laptops’ Device Manager Lists:
its really weird, microphone is normal in audacity and any other application.

Things I Tried & More Info:
* My mic is Fifine ampligame am8.
* I am on Laptop (Acer nitro 5).
* I Dont use Usb hub or anything like that.
* The CPU isn't under a heavy load during my streams/recordings. The issue persists even if no game is running.
* I've recorded using hardware AND software encoding.
* Problem is in both broadcasts and recordings.
* I've recorded in Audacity at the same time as OBS to confirm that the cutouts only happen in OBS recordings, so it doesn't seem like a hardware issue.
* The sample rate for all audio devices has been set to 44.1khz, which matches my OBS settings.
* I've tested the mic with filters and without.
* The gain knob on my mic is pretty low. It's definitely not peaking unless I shout into it point-blank.
* I've tried running Streamlabs as administrator.
* There doesn't seem to be any correlation with my speaking volume or keyboard/mouse inputs.
* I've tried using OBS as well as SLOBS. No discernable difference.
* I've tried "Exclusive Mode" on and off under Windows sound settings.
* No discernable difference when I change the audio bitrate.
* disabled "allow the computer to turn off this device to save power" in device manager
I dont know what to do, Any help would be greatly appreciated! Thank you!
