Echoing problem while voice chatting with friends.

zombiecreed799,

I'm sorry that you are having this problem.

Personally, I have experienced issues with my friends being able to hear themselves echo through my headset. Although I have a different headset (Polk 4shot), it may be a similar issue.

I've found that it only happens when I have the chat volume turned up too loud on my headset. When I turn the chat (and overall) volume down enough my friends can no longer hear themselves. You can try slowly turning it down while asking your friends to
keep talking and let you know when they can no longer hear themselves echoing.

Let me know if this works for you!

Is your voice heard in your headset at exactly the same time as you speak, or is there a slight delay from you speaking to you hearing your voice back?

The only reason im asking is that whenever a certain friend of mine logs into a party chat we always get echo, ie I speak and then hear myself a split second later. Its all down to his cheap headset, his TV is muted and yet we always get echo.

The best way to tell if it is your friends fault or not is to leave the party chat tab showing on the left hand side of the screen, and then you speak (while he stays silent), if your friends chat icon lights up green when you hear your echo then its something wrong at his end.

Are you playing a game when you get this echo?

Party chat was acting up on me one day so I used Skype to chat with a friend while we played a game. Skype was fine, but when we started Battlefield and got into a game, we noticed an echo. It ends up our voice was going through Skype and through the game
chat. We had to turn off game chat in the options in Battlefield to get rid of the echo.

Edit: Nevermind. I just noticed how old this post was. Sorry

If the problem is only related to game voice chat, which is not related to Xbox party chat, then check audio volume settings in your game.

for example when I play Sea of Thieves, I can use Xbox party to talk to my friends, or use in-game voice chat to talk to my friends in the crew. it has different volume settings which are inside the game.

I can use both of them at the same time but i will generate echo.

hope that helps

I just remembered an important detail. If my friend mutes his mic in either of the aforementioned scenarios, the echo stops. In fact, as the echo happens, his ring lights up in the party chat to indicate that his mic is picking up my voice and, once muted,
it no longer lights up.
