MIC Volume too low?

Hello,

sometimes I do skype calls and my friends can hear me just fine. Even if I test with Echo/Sound test service call I can hear myself fine (louder with automatic mic volume by skype).

On the other side, when trying to record my MIC on OBS, volume is kinda low, so that I applied some gain to it, without changing Windows volume level, which stays at 70% already. It's a cheap desktop MIC, so I'm not talking right in front of it (TONOR TC30).

I would like to know what's my best option.
  • Rising MIC volume level in Windows - keep OBS Volume at 0.0db without gain
  • Leaving MIC volume in Windows at 70% (I'd prefer this way) - set OBS Volume at more than 0.0 db and/or apply some more gain to the MIC.

Thanks :)
