Getting the Most out of SightSpeed

Headsets and Sound Quality

Tips to Remember

• Connection speeds impact sound quality. Slow connections make sound choppy
• Headsets ensure the greatest sound quality
• Echoing occurs if any participant uses a low quality "open-air" microphone
• There are "open-air" microphones that can eliminate echoes and work as well as headsets
• Set up your headset before installing SightSpeed

What you can control

• Sometimes exiting a call and trying again, can reset and improve the connection speed... which then improves everything about the call, including your sound
• Always using a headset or echo cancelling microphones optimizes your experience

How SightSpeed helps

• Sightspeed's setup wizard walks you through step by step in configuring your headset or speakers/microphone for best sound quality
• SightSpeed adjusts the size of video/audio bits while you’re in call, so that you get the best call possible given the connection speeds at hand
• Unfortunately, SightSpeed is at the mercy of any one of the participants' ISP bandwidth and quality of service.
