      If you hear echo: * Ask the other party to decrease his or her microphone or speaker volume, if possible. * If the other party is using Cisco IP Communicator in speakerphone mode, ask him/her to make sure that the button is lit. * Make sure that your sound card is not feeding back audio from the microphone to the speaker.

    What to do if the other party reports I sound too quiet on Cisco IP Communicator?
    • J

      If the other party reports that you sound too quiet: * If you are using a headset, ensure Cisco IP Communicator is in headset mode. Headset mode is operating if is lit. If it is unlit, click it. * Make sure that the microphone boom is positioned correctly if you are using a headset. * If the problem persists, launch the Audio Tuning Wizard and increase the microphone volume for the current audio device. Before you tune an audio device that has its own volume adjustor, such as a USB headset with volume controls on the wire, increase the device’s volume level to the highest setting. * If you still sound too quiet, enable the Microphone Boost feature for the audio device from the Audio Tuning Wizard.
