Setup Voice

This clipboard section sets up your voice (Vox) radio.

The microphone itself is chosen on the Setup Sound page (Microphone). Pick the right one there first, then come back here to set its volume.

Enable Range Channel Beeps - The Range radio will play an identifying beep at the beginning of every radio transmission.

Enable Tunable Channel Beeps - The Tunable radio will play an identifying beep at the beginning of every radio transmission.

Play voices in sequence - Radio transmissions are played one after another in the order they arrive. With many people talking this can delay voices.

Mic Volume - One slider for how loud you are heard. The left half sets the Windows microphone volume (the middle is Windows at 100%); the right half boosts your voice further in the game. Most microphones belong at or a little right of the middle. If you distort when you speak up, move it left.

Auto Mic Volume - When checked, Aces High listens to how loud you speak while you transmit and moves the Mic Volume slider for you, up or down, to keep your voice at a steady level. You can watch the slider move if you talk with this page open. The level it settles on is saved.

Test Mic - Records about 4 seconds of your voice with the settings shown on this page, then plays it back the way other players will hear it. The button shows Talk now while recording and Playing during playback. Nothing is sent to other players. Cancel still undoes any changes you tried.

Voice Playback Volume - Adjusts the volume of the voice radio.

Playback Effects Volume - Adjusts the volume of background game sounds while voice communications are played.

Record Effects Volume - Adjusts the volume of background game sounds while you transmit (default 10%).

No voice? Check that the right Microphone is selected on Setup Sound, that Windows allows apps to use the microphone (Windows Settings, Privacy, Microphone), then use Test Mic.
