Microsoft Teams: Music Mode for Teams

Originally posted by Microsoft Oct 3, 2021 Microsoft Teams 0 Comments

In music mode, we support up to 32 kHz sampling
rate mono audio at 128 kbps, and optimize our internal audio processing
settings for reproducing music with high fidelity. Teams will automatically
adjust the audio bitrate based on the available bandwidth, going down to 48
kbps while still delivering good music quality. We also provide users the
option to turn off components such as echo cancellation, noise suppression, and
gain control if needed. To benefit from this improved fidelity, professional
microphones and headphones or high quality external loudspeakers are ideal (no
Bluetooth headsets). Built-in microphones and speakers on laptops such as the
Surface Book will also deliver good experience.
