Setting levels in Voice Chat
The Levels tab on the Voice Chat Options dialog box lets
you perform recording and playback tests and measure
other speech qualities. Use the Levels tab when you’re
not
using Voice Chat, (e.g.;before you begin chat).
To configure levels in Voice Chat:
1 On the Options menu, click Voice Chat Options.
2 Click the Levels tab.
3 Under Set Speaker Level, click the Play Speech button.
TIP
Some sound cards do not allow these settings to be
changed using software; in this case, the sliders won’t be
available.
4 While listening to the speech, move the Speaker Level slider
to a comfortable level.
If you cannot hear the speech, move the slider towards
High. If the speech is too loud, move the slider towards
Low.
5 Under Set Microphone Level, click the Record button. The
Windows Sound Recorder opens.
TIP
If the Sound Recorder is not available, adjust this
option while you are using Voice Chat, instead.
6 Use the Sound Recorder to record and play back a few sec-
onds of speech.
7 If you could not hear what you recorded, move the Micro-
phone Level slider towards High, and try using the Sound
Recorder again.
8 Under Set Environment Level, click the Setup button. The
Environment Setup wizard begins, and you’re asked to
record a few seconds of background noise and a few sec-
onds of speech.
Setting the environment level helps avoid transmitting
sound that is not speech. It is recommended that you use
the Setup button, and not the slider, to adjust this level.
Improving quality over a fast connection
Voice Chat works best over a fast connection. If you use
Voice Chat over a network or other fast connection, you
might be able to improve the Voice Chat sound quality.
To improve Voice Chat performance over a fast connec-
tion:
1 On the Options menu, click Voice Chat Options.
2 On the Advanced tab, change Transmission Quality to
Medium or High.
Be sure to reset this option to Low when you use a
modem or other slow connection.
CAUTION
When you have a slow connection, using
Medium or High may cause problems with your connec-
tion.
It is recommended that you set up your environment level
every time you change the transmission quality.
