Microphone Enhancements

The Microphone Setup allows you to optimise the microphone input settings for your particular configuration. Choose Standard Microphone if you have an ordinary desktop microphone. Choose Headset if you have a wearable microphone that is positioned directly in front of your mouth.

SoundMAX Superbeam™ Microphone is designed for an optional microphone, which is sold by Andrea Electronics. You can get information about the microphone at the web site of Andrea Electronics.

You can launch the Setup Wizard from the Control Panel to help you to automatically set proper microphone input volumes and ensure that your voice input(s) are working correctly. As you speak into the microphone, the Sound Meter indicates the audio signal that your PC is receiving.

The Noise Reduction enhancement helps to eliminate ambient noise from the voice input signal to provide a clean and clear signal to applications. This feature can be used with any microphone.

If the Noise Reduction check box is selected, a monaural sound is recorded when recording by a stereo microphone. You need to disable this check box if you would like to record a stereo sound by a stereo microphone.
