One person causing party chat echo

Hello Rojo85, sorry to hear your friend is having trouble.

First, I'd like to mention that the best possible help could be provided if your friend wrote in. That way we can help her specifically.

However, what she can try is to go into her Audio settings on the console then go into Party & Chat and set it to 50%.

If that doesn't work then the easiest thing for her to do would be to run a factory reset on the console. There's an option to keep installed games and apps and her saves will be safe on the Cloud.

The only difference would be that when she's prompted to bring over previous settings or use the app to set up she should select No.

You can read how to do a reset via this link https://support.xbox.com/en-US/help/hardware-ne...

Hello,

When experiencing an issue with (headset echo), it tends to be caused by the connection between you and others in the party. May I ask if you have experienced this in multiple parties apart from one?

Regards,

Only one person so far. But did happen off and on with the Turtle Beach 800X. I will find another person to check the chat and turn of mic monitoring. Thanks.

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.

have you tried turning down mic sensitivity and party chat volume in the audio settings?

it's worth trying if you haven't already as that is the cause of most echo in headsets.

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
