Set the mic on something like a rubber pad. Also, try wearing headphones, see if that helps. It sounds like you're dealing with normal feedback issues, and Windows' echo cancellation may simply be better than what you've got set up.

Mic is USB?

Set the mic on something like a rubber pad. Also, try wearing headphones= , see if that helps. It sounds like you're dealing with normal feedback= issues, and Windows' echo cancellation may simply be better than what = you've got set up.

I took your suggestion and turned off all of the Capture settings on
the X-Fi, obviously I had to leave it on the USB mic to get audio
through. =C2=A0Still having the issue.

My mixer settings for capture on the X-Fi are Master, PCM, Line-in,
Mic and S/PDIF-in. =C2=A0Most of them had capture enabled, I disabled all of them. =C2=A0There doesn't appear to be an input setting.

The lone mixer setting for my USB mic (AK5370) is mic, which is set to
100% and LR Capture.

Everything seems pretty covered in there.
