How do I use an external hand held mic to amplify my voice thru external speakers? I have tested the mic. It records my voice, so I know the mic works. The speakers work as well. I have ID'd my mic thru control panel. All the sound levels are set to max. All I want to do is speak into the mic and hear my voice loud and clear from the speakers. I want my voice heard when I am presenting a slide presentation.
If you're using Windows 7, open Start Menu, type "sound", and click on Sound (it should be the first link under Control Panel).
Select the 'Recording' tab, find your microphone, Right-Click it, then 'Properties'.
In the new window, select the 'Listen' tab, then Check "Listen to this device". Press Apply.
Done.
If you want to stop it, just Uncheck "Listen to this device" and press Apply.
You're welcome.
