Why does my wired microphone sometimes have poor sound quality in Teams?

Updated

If your sound quality makes it seem like you're talking through a tin can in a hurricane, don't fret – your microphone might not be the culprit!

Most often, poor sound quality is due to:

• Application settings: Teams or other programs might select the wrong microphone or use automatic noise cancellation that sometimes cuts too much of the audio.

• Cable connections: Sometimes the connector isn't properly seated, or an extension cable or hub in use degrades the signal.

• Computer settings: If the wrong microphone level or boost is selected in the computer's sound settings, the audio might be low or choppy.

Tips for better sound:

• Check that Teams is using the exact microphone your headphones are connected to.

• Ensure the connector is firmly attached.

• Adjust your computer's microphone level settings – sometimes a small boost works wonders.

If the sound is still shaky, you can always contact info@valco.fi, and our minions will help you adjust your microphone's sound to be crystal clear. 🎤✨
