To change advanced microphone settings, follow these steps:

1. Click Advanced Mic Settings. The panel expands to show the advanced microphone settings.
2. Disable or enable the following settings:
   • Automatic Mic Gain controls microphone volume levels. Disable this option if you experience microphone volume fluctuation.
   • Echo Cancellation removes from the microphone sound that comes through your speakers. If you do not use speakers, this option has no effect on your sound quality.
   • Noise Suppression removes background noise. In some situations, the microphone may be unable to separate your voice from the noises around you. Try to position your microphone closer to your mouth and speak louder before you disable this option.
