Hi,
So in the previous Zoom version I would simply follow these steps to make sure I was recording with my microphone settings and not having all of Zoom's sound artifacts gt in the way. For that I used to do the following:
1) How to enable the in-meeting option for original sound Desktop client
- Sign in to the Zoom desktop client.
- Click your profile picture, then click Settings
- In the navigation menu, click Audio
- Under Music and Professional Audio, select the Show in-meeting option to enable "Original Sound" check box.
The Original Sound setting will be displayed in in the top left corner of your meetings .
2) Then I would preserve original sound during a meeting by following the below instructions.
Desktop client
- Sign in to the Zoom desktop client.
- Start or join a meeting.
- Click Turn Original Sound On in the top-left corner.
- To the right of Turn Original Sound On, click the down arrow
to select a microphone that automatically uses original sound when selected.
- So when it said Turn Original Sound On it means it was currently still deactivated (att: Old_Sound off)
- And when it sais Turn Original Sound Off, it meant it was currently still activated (att: Old_Sound on)
BUT NOW for step 2 (to preserve original sound during a meeting ), the wording has change from:
[Turn Original Sound On/Off] to Original Sound On or Original Sound Off.
So my question is: Can I check that the current meaning is indeed:
- Original Sound On = it is activated aka it is picking up the original sound and thereby disabling Zoom's sound suppression etc? (att: New 2 sound on?)
- Original Sound Off = it is deactivated aka I am now recording with Zoom's sound suppression etc (att: New 1 sound off?)
Thank you in advance for your support. Have attached the screenshots
