    Have you tried Ribbon Microphones? it's working well on it, I bought ti last week from https://www.reecoupons.com/categories/back-to-school and after installing RAZER SYNAPSE, its still working, maybe there is an issue with your software.

    It's worth noting that the issue only happens in Unity, the microphone works fine in all other apps (with Synapse installed or not)
