High-quality, uninterrupted audio is crucial for conference call success
If you’re like most of us, prior to the sudden COVID lock-down, you had little experience with video conferencing.
It’s been a challenge.
Working from kitchen tables and bedrooms, using previously unheard of software like Zoom and Teams, we’ve all been learning-on-the-fly.
Through trial, and quite a bit of error, you’ve probably tried different set-ups and locations, looking for a solution to make sure you present yourself in the most professional light possible.
And the biggest challenge of all is producing high-quality audio.
Here’s why...
-
Sound waves bounce off the hard surfaces and create an echo...echo...echo
When you speak in the direction of your laptop or phone, some of your voice reaches the microphone.
While the rest radiates out and reflects off of all of the surfaces in your surrounding area.
These reflected waves, along with all the other background noises in your environment, are then picked up by the microphone.
The result?
An audio full of background noises, echoes, pops and static.
Along with perhaps a little resentment and a few rolled eyes from those you are meeting with!
We can all put up with poor video quality or bad lighting, but poor quality audio makes a meeting harder to focus on and the overall productivity of the group suffers.
You may think you don't have the problem because you can't hear the echo, or any of these other distracting noises. But, here's the thing ...
If you can't hear the echo, you're probably causing it!
Control your environment for better audio quality

The Portable Acoustic Baffle is a free -standing system that sits on your desk or table and encompasses your laptop or phone.
It absorbs your voice, after the microphone has received it, reducing the echo effect.
The result is firstly that your own spoken contribution to the conference is sharp and clear, and secondly, less of the reverberation or background noise from your room will leach through to distract and annoy other participants.
Meaning when there is a problem, you can feel confident that it is not you!
