Echo

Problem

I hear an echo during the conference. How can I eliminate the echo?

Cause

Proximity of speakers and microphone: If they are too close together, the sound from the speakers can be picked up by the microphone, resulting in an echo.

Microphone Sensitivity or Gain: High sensitivity or gain settings on the microphone can cause it to pick up sound from the speakers and create an echo.

Room Acoustics: Rooms with hard surfaces can cause sound to bounce, creating echoes. The use of sound-absorbing materials can help to reduce this.

Multiple audio devices: Conflicts between different audio devices connected to your computer can cause echoes. Ensure that only the required devices are active and properly configured.

Network Latency: Delays in the transmission of audio data over the network can cause audio and echo to overlap. Check your internet connection for stability and reduce network congestion.

Software or settings: Problems with the video conferencing software or incorrect audio settings can cause echoes. Keep the software up to date and see if there are any echo cancellation options.

Solution

Echo or feedback can be caused by speakers or microphones that are too close together. Try moving devices further apart, muting your microphone when not speaking, or using headphones.
