Echo problems, Help given, not needed

[=)DD(=Gotcha!]

Hello guys

I've been experiencing a lot of echoes when using TS. But, I solved my problems. And because I don't think anyone likes echoes, I will post my configuration and some explanation, so that it might help people with echo problems....
This file attached shows the configuration of windows volume control (or whatever it's English name is...) this is a small program, always included in windows with which you can adjust all the different volumes of sound-producing devices...
BTW, I use windows XP, but in other versions it might be quite the same.

Ok, how do you get to the volume control? Very easy:
It might be shown in your taskbar, a small sign (most of the time the sign is a speaker) Or you'll have to find it:
- Go to c:/windows (or wherever you got windows installed)
- Got to to the system32 directory (so c:/windows/system32)
- Open (double click) on 'sndvol32' file

WOW, you opened the volume control :D

Ok, now make all the settings the same as shown in the attachment. The attachment is in Dutch, but I’ll put translations down this message. Ow, btw:
You've got two kinds of volume control:
- Volume control (standard when you open the sndvol32 file)
- Record control (opened in this way: options > properties > record, DO NOT FORGET TO check all boxes)
The ‘things’ shown in volume/record control might be different, or there might be more. Just make sure you have something like the same ones in my screenshot. (by checking the boxes when you go to options> properties > record/play off)

OK, now check my attachment. Notice:
-Wave (volume control) not to high!!!
-Microphone (volume control) high, because this is how good you
can hear the others (how loud there voices are)
-Microphone (RECORD control) as high as needed. In my case is it low because I have 'micboost' (advanced option) but in most cases it must be quite high or maybe even max!!

Ok, hope all is clear to the readers.

Translation of my (Dutch) attachment, English names might be different:
--------------
Volume control:
Volumeregeling= Master volume / volume setting
Wave = wave :)
CD-speler = CD-player (how loud sound from cd-rom station, when using it to play cd’s, is, I think, it's not real important)
Microfoon = Microphone
Aux = ? Aux?
Lijningang = Line in
Phone = Phone :)
Mono Out = Mono out
-----------------
Record control:
All are above, only:
Wave-uitgangmix = wave-exit mix (uhmz, free translation, now idea if it is correct :))

Ok, hope all is clear to the readers and that many can use it
If admins of this forum do not like this post because of some kind of reason (like: already posted by others, 'cause i didn't check that, or any other reason) they're free to do so...
And sorry for my bad English...

OW, another important fact: ALL users of my (clan’s) TS server had about this configuration. Only then it will work I think….

I'm not sure, but I think there is something wrong about your post.

Microphone Volume: should be MUTE, because you don't need to listen to yourself only Record yourself. So...

Microphone Recording: I have mine half way with the +20db boost enabled. But this depends on what type of mic you have, and how near it is to your mouth.

Wave Volume: Leave this as you usually have it. If you need to raise the volume of other people voices, use the volume control inside teamspeak. This way, all your games will still have the same volume they've always had.

TeamSpeak volume can be found on Settings, Sound Input/Output Settings, The first slider.

Uhmz, the microphone volume IS muted in my attachment, ins't it?
Microphone recording is true, depends on a lot of factors, but i said that... (as high as YOU need)
-Microphone (RECORD control) as high as needed. In my case is it low because I have 'micboost' (advanced option) but in most cases it must be quite high or maybe even max!!
Wave should be low, at least, with my experiences. As soon as people put it high i can hear their sounds. For example: a friend of mines listens to some music while beeing in TS. His wavevolume is high: i can hear what song he's listening to. Litteraly. But when it's low i can't..... Same with the sound effects of his game. Had it with more than 1 friend....
BUT when WAVE is down, you'll have to raise the slider next to wave (volume control/master volume)..Because else you're other sounds will be very low and unhearable.

So my advice is put wave down, use the volume control of either the windows volume control or teamspeak.
