I just got a new headset (SteelSeries Siberia) and i need MIC BOOST for people to hear me better as im a little quiet, as i play games often i need them to be able to hear me over gunfire ect.. Ive looked in Sound > Recording > Microphone > Properties but there is no custom or mic boost anywhere. I've got all the volumes on as high as they will go.

thanks.
