Are you using an audio interface while recording?

# Too much bass in desktop sounds with a headset, but not during recording, only afterwards

(Asked by: username_0 on 2018-09-14)

I recorded some video footages with my voiceover, both with **Fraps** and **OBS**. (Also streamed with the latter)

* While I was **playing** everything was **fine**. (I played with a headset)
* When I played the videos on my notebook **speaker**, they were **fine**.
* But when I played them with my **headset on**, they had **too much bass**. But only the **desktop sounds**. The mic input was fine.

Any ideas?

1. The fact that is sounds fine on your laptop speakers is probably because they do not reproduce much bass anyway.
2. To be sure that there is a difference in the recording, and the "live" sound, you could directly compare your recording after doing something like listening to a song on youtube, without changing volume. This allows you to go back and forth. If you're sure there is a difference you could post the example here.
