Tips for Better Microphone Quality
- Speak directly into the microphone from about 15-30 cm (6-12 inches) away.
- Reduce background noise — close windows, turn off fans, and mute notifications.
- Use a headset or external microphone for clearer audio than built-in laptop mics.
- Check your system volume settings — make sure the mic input isn't muted or too low.
- Avoid touching or tapping near the microphone during recording.
- Test in a quiet room for the most accurate results.
