Audio Tab
Select the sound card for the audio input and output. The selection is
necessary if multiple sound cards or sound-card drivers are installed. The
settings for input and output must refer to the same device. When using
DirectSound too, the same device must be selected for input and for output in
the system’s sound and multimedia settings.
You can also specify which connected device emits the ringing tones, e.g. a
connected headset or a speaker connected to the sound card.
The
Echo cancellation
option reduces audible echo for callers. An echo will be
heard if a speaker and a microphone or a badly suppressed headset is used. If
this option is activated, the microphone is suppressed, or for hands-free calls it
is muted during calls via the receiver as soon as the caller speaks.
The
Local echo
option is only available if your sound card supports the direct
output of microphone data to the speaker. This means that speech is played
back without delay in suppressed form on your speaker, in the same way that
it is on your telephone. This option is only recommended if you are using a
headset.
The
Use DirectSound
option allows multiple applications to output acoustic
signals simultaneously. This means that you can use the Forum IPhone PC
while playing music data, for example. Deactivate this option if you experience
problems with the input and output of audio data.
