Echo Xbox Party

Hello AMERK.H,

Thank you for contacting the Xbox support forums. Before assisting further, can you please provide a few more details regarding the issue?

1) I wanted to confirm, is this an issue you're receiving while playing games on PC?

2) Are you receiving this issue after a recent update or has it always persisted when you join parties?
3) If you're on PC, have you attempted to use the microphone while using applications such as Discord?

These questions will help me better understand how to troubleshoot further. I'm looking forward to your response!

it depends who is hearing the echo.

if you are hearing an echo then it is most likely that someone else in your party has their mic gain too high and has party chat through their TV or too loud in their headphones. check whose name shows when you hear the echo.

they would need to turn down party chat volume and/or change their mic sensitivity

Hi

The first thing I would suggest you to try doing is to turn the volume on your headset and television down a little bit because if the volume is too high this can sometimes cause some echo.

As I understand you are experiencing echo issues with your party.

First, please make sure that you are using the boom mic with the headset. Using the internal mic can cause an echo issue at higher volumes with Xbox One.

If people in your party are complaining about hearing their voice echo back or strange squawk type noises, first try adjusting your "Headset Volume" in the Xbox Guide down one notch from maximum.

If you hear everyone else in your party echo when in party chat, it is likely due to the Xbox One being set to output party chat audio to both speakers and the headset at the same time.


To change this setting:

1. Press the Xbox button to open the guide.
2. Select Settings.
3. Select All Settings.
4. Select Display & sound.
5. Select Volume.
6. Select Party chat output
7. Select Headset

You should no longer hear the echo.

Hi KyunKitsune! My name is Ricardo an independent advisor ready to help you with this situation!

If you can hear the echo of the party means that it's not originated by you, that would be someone else in the party that has the echo and it's the reason why you hear your self

If others can hear echo on their end but you can't, means you need to lower the headset volume and the Mic monitoring to reduce the echo
