Microsoft Teams update will save you from this embarrassing meeting mistake
Having music or other audio playing during a video call can be distracting for attendees and embarrassing for users which is why Microsoft added a noise suppression feature to its video conferencing software earlier this year.
This feature is now enabled by default for most users and as a result, any background noise is automatically removed during meetings in Microsoft Teams.
While you may want music and other background noise to be removed from your speeches and presentations, this isn’t always the case which is why Microsoft also created a high-fidelity music mode. When enabled, this mode streams the sound from your laptop or PC including all background sounds in high quality.
Enabling high-fidelity mode
According to a new post in the Microsoft 365 Roadmap, the software giant has developed a new machine learning-based music detector that can let users know whenever music is detected.
Once this feature rolls out in January of 2022, Teams users will see a notification at the bottom of their screen which reads “Music is detected and may be suppressed. Enable High fidelity mode to make sure everyone clearly hears your music” alongside a button to enable high fidelity mode as well as another button to dismiss the notification altogether.
While you still may not want background music to be heard during important business meetings, this feature could be useful for those giving music or even dance lessons over Teams.
