Enjoying Stereo Audio in Video Calls

CONTROLLING WHAT YOU HEAR

If your video conferencing room is configured to use stereo sound, the microphones are positioned at the end of the conference table nearest the video conferencing system. One microphone pod is positioned on the left side of the table and one on the right.

The left and right microphones are configured during system setup. It is important that you do not move them as this may detract from the stereo audio experience.

Stereo audio is only used in video calls of 256 Kbps or higher.
