Premium Video Conferencing for Everyone - Audio for USB Video Conference Must Be Better

Audio for USB video conference must be much better than audio for desktop conferencing. Think audio zooming on the speaker, high-end noise suppression and echo cancellation. Even 3D audio. As good as or better than high end conference systems. Pre-pandemic, video conferencing was a rather staid market. At the high-end, big expensive systems and plans for corporations. At the low-end, free Skype for the rest of us. Now, USB video conferencing is moving fast to redefine the domain.

Staying Connected in Hostile Sound Environments

Consumers are increasingly looking to have high quality sound integrated into their lives in creative ways. However, ensuring that their demands are met across connectivity and sound can be hard to achieve. Often, the more creative and interesting the application, the higher chance it’s harder to produce a sound that is perfect for every use case.
