Tips for Great Audio
 
Your Concorde¥4500 comes equipped with a PowerMic
 
ª
 
 microphone. The 
PowerMic is very sensitive and picks up every sound in its operating radius.
To get the best audio quality possible, follow these tips:
 
 
Place the PowerMic on the table in front of the meeting participants. For 
videoconferences with more than four participants, consider adding another 
microphone.
 
 
Speak in your normal voice without shouting.
 
 
Speak toward the PowerMic without leaning into it.
 
 
Ask the people at the other site if they can hear you. Have them introduce 
themselves so you can be sure that you can hear them.
 
 
Pause for others to answer you or to make comments because the audio has a 
slight delay.
 
 
DonÕt place papers or other objects on or in the way of the PowerMic.
 
 
DonÕt rustle papers or tap on your PowerMic.
 
 
Try to limit side conversations.
 
Tips for Muting
 
Whenever you donÕt want to be heard by another site in your videoconference, 
you should mute your microphones. Here are some muting tips:
 
 
If your system has an optional Look-At-Me-Button
 
ª
 
(LAMB
 
ª
 
), people sitting 
far from the keypad can mute your microphones by pressing the 
 
MUTE
 
 button 
on the LAMB. 
 
 
If you have a VCR connected to your system and youÕre playing a videotape, 
pressing 
 
MUTE
 
 doesnÕt mute the VCRÕs audio.
 
 
In a multipoint call with voice-activated switching, you should mute your 
system whenever you donÕt want to be heard by the other sites in the call. This 
way, your site wonÕt be heard by the others if you talk among yourselves.
