    Hi @sarahanne53 

     

    The prerequisites for Original Sound list only the Zoom desktop client and the Zoom mobile app. So I am guessing that Chromebooks are not supported.

    You used to have to treat it as an app. Not sure now…

    See https://community.zoom.com/t5/Meetings/New-extension-to-enable-original-sound-on-Chromebook-others/td-p/44481 - it's now possible to get this via a Chrome extension I developed.  It's actually independent controls for echo cancellation versus the other voice optimizations that are normally performed by default.  You can leave echo cancellation on but turn off the voice optimization if you are only trying to share "live" audio as opposed to audio from computer playback, or turn them both off for the least processed result.
