Simultaneous Talkers
Audio comes out of the
laptop speakers and into the open microphone… which causes
the echo!
Use a headset
to prevent
echo

Tips for Managing Simultaneous Talkers• Ensure that everyone using the audio has an echo cancelling
device.• If someone in the session is using the audio without an echo
cancelling device, consider moving back to the default of one talker at a time and take turns using the VoIP.
• Remember that the Moderator can control the Participants audio. If a microphone is left on and is causing an echo, the Moderator can turn it off by temporarily removing audio permission.
