Reduce Background Noise During a Meeting

You can reduce the background noise picked up from your mic during a meeting by enabling the Noise Cancellation feature in MiTeam Meetings.

Note: The Noise Cancellation feature will not be enabled by default. You must enable it from the Settings panel of the application during a meeting.

Enabling noise cancellation reduces the volume of noises that can interfere during a meeting, such as:

Note: Enabling noise cancellation does not eliminate the type of noises mentioned above; it reduces their volume. Use the Mute button in the control panel to silence yourself to others.

How to Enable Noise Cancellation

  1. During an ongoing meeting, click the More icon () from the control panel, and then click the Settings icon (). The Settings panel opens.
  2. Click the Audio tab, and select the Enable noise cancellation check box. Close the Settings panel to return to the meeting.


    This enables noise cancellation.

Repeat these steps, and clear the Enable noise cancellation check box to disable noise cancellation. You can disable noise cancellation at any time during a meeting. For example:
  • When you are in a conference room and you want remote attendees to hear the conversation between the other people in the room.
  • You want other attendees to hear your ambient noise, such as music playing, before the start of a presentation
Note:
  • If your browser does not support noise cancellation, the Enable noise cancellation checkbox will be greyed out and the message Your browser does not support noise cancellation will be displayed.
  • If you have cleared the Show audio and video preview before joining a meeting check box, and selected the Turn on my microphone when joining a meeting check box in the Settings panel of your application, a message Would you like to turn on noise cancellation? will appear after 30 seconds of joining a meeting and if you have not clicked anything/anywhere in the meeting.


    You must click Confirm when this message appears to enable noise cancellation. Clicking Cancel will disable noise cancellation.
