The Speech Runtime (I use WIN+H to use Windows 10 built-in Dragon-Naturally-Style-But-Not free dictation in any app) uses the Webcam mic explicitly as it has the best recognition in my experience.Here I've got the system sounds running through Default (usually the main speakers and the default mic is a webcam).The only catch is that this list only shows the apps that are currently using the mic/speaker, so if you want to get a nice setup, you'll want to run apps in order to change the settings for your app. Rather than me constantly using the Audio Switcher (lovely as it is) I'll just set my ins and outs for each app. You can set the Preferred Input and Output device on an App by App Basis. NOT IMPRESSED ARE YOU? Of course not, because while that's a lovely feature it's not the hidden power I'm talking about. You can set the volume in active apps on an app-by-app basis. See where it says 'Change the device or app volume?' Ok, now DRINK THIS IN. You can also get to it from the regular Settings | Audio page: There's a page that does double duty called App Volume and Device Preferences. Hit the Start Menu and search for either 'Sound Mixer' or 'App Volume' What? I know this OS like the back of my hand! Nonsense! Very 'prosumer,' which is me, so I dig it.Ī little birdie said that I should also look closer at Windows 10 itself. Then I got ' EarTrumpet' - it's an applet that lets you control the volume of classic and modern Windows Apps in one nice UI! Switching, volume, and more.I set up this AudioSwitcher and figured, cool, solved that silly problem.I've got 5 inputs and 5 outputs and I've seen PC audiophiles with even more. That's at least three different 'scenarios' for my audio setup. I need to switch audio devices a lot as I'm either watching video, doing a podcast, doing a conference call, playing a game, etc. I recently blogged about an amazing little utility called AudioSwitcher that makes it two-clicks easy to switch your audio inputs and outputs.
