Luca Gigli 925778 Posted December 4, 2014 at 09:13 AM Posted December 4, 2014 at 09:13 AM I've just installed VPilot, but I can't calibrate microphone. I always get the answer "SpeechDrownedOut" and a different number of Squeelch. I'm sure my microphone is working, because it works on Windows and in Teamspeak. I've tried to calibrate mic boith pushing PTT and without pushing it. Thank you Luca Italy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ernesto Alvarez 818262 Posted December 4, 2014 at 01:55 PM Posted December 4, 2014 at 01:55 PM the vatsim voice codec doesnt really support a lot of background noise, if you have your speakers loud or a lot of background noise, that would cause that also if you have your mic boost turned on in your windows settings, that would also do it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ross Carlson Posted December 4, 2014 at 02:03 PM Posted December 4, 2014 at 02:03 PM After you spoke into the mic for 5 seconds during the calibration, it should play back your recorded voice. Did you hear it? (Note that you do not need to press your PTT during calibration.)

Luca Gigli 925778 Posted December 4, 2014 at 06:20 PM Author Posted December 4, 2014 at 06:20 PM Ernesto: no, I hear nothing played back Ross: I haven't mic boost active in Windows. I'll try to shut down speakers, the only noise is the fans of my computer, but I don't think they areso noising. I've also tried with two different mics, but nothing happens Thank you Luca Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luca Gigli 925778 Posted December 6, 2014 at 08:27 AM Author Posted December 6, 2014 at 08:27 AM I've tried with and without mic boost and i?ve also kept off (is a plug in mic) during 5 seconds for calibrating noise, but nothing. Sometimes I had the answer "Speechdrownedout", sometimes I had the response "Backgroundnoisetooloud, Sppechdrownedout, microphonehot" and I hear noise recorded. But the only noise and it's so loud, are the fans of the computer. I've tried with other mic, but nothing changes. I don't know hot to do, I'll try with FsInn or SB.

Board of Governors Don Desfosse Posted December 6, 2014 at 04:36 PM Board of Governors Posted December 6, 2014 at 04:36 PM I certainly don't mean to ask a silly question, but it may be relevant, since so many folks (myself included) have done it from time to time, but are you sure you've selected the correct audio device from the ones offered? I know I have 3, and every once in a while select the wrong one with the same issue. Good luck! Don Desfosse Vice President, Operations Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kyle Ramsey 810181 Posted December 6, 2014 at 08:22 PM Posted December 6, 2014 at 08:22 PM I had the same error. What I think I figured out is the silent period start AFTER you click OK on the dialogue box, so the silent period is between when you click and the next box pops up saying to talk for five seconds. Don't use the PTT during this test. Kyle Ramsey Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luca Gigli 925778 Posted December 12, 2014 at 03:35 PM Author Posted December 12, 2014 at 03:35 PM Don: yes, I'm sure I've selected the correct audio device (I've two: a sound card integrated on the motherboard and one "external"). Kyle: I'll try it. I mean that the silent periodcould be 5 seconds from the pop-up window and the ok, but I'ill try. Do you think that the speaking period is the same thing: after clicking the pop-up window for speaking? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ross Carlson Posted December 12, 2014 at 03:48 PM Posted December 12, 2014 at 03:48 PM Here are the steps: 1) Click OK on the first popup and remain silent for 5 seconds. 2) After those 5 seconds go by, you'll see a second popup. Click OK and speak at a normal voice level for 5 seconds. 3) After those next 5 seconds go by, you'll see a third popup showing the results. Click OK to hear your voice played back to you. I will edit the text on the popups to be more clear if I can.
