How to use it
- Press “Test my microphone” and allow access when the browser asks.
- Talk or clap: the bar and the wave should move. If you have several microphones, pick one in the list.
- Record 5 seconds and play it back to hear how you sound.
Questions and answers
Why is my microphone not working?
The usual causes are a muted headset, the wrong input device selected in the system, or another app (Zoom, Teams, Discord) holding the microphone. Pick the right microphone in the list and close the other apps.
Why can’t the site use my microphone?
The permission was blocked. Click the lock icon next to the address, set Microphone to Allow and reload. On Windows and macOS, also check that the browser is allowed to use the microphone in the privacy settings.
Is my voice recorded or uploaded?
No. The level and the wave are calculated in your browser. The 5-second test recording stays in this tab and disappears when you close it.
What sound level is normal?
Normal speech into a headset usually peaks between −30 and −10 dBFS. If the bar barely moves, raise the input volume in your system settings; if it hits the end, lower it to avoid distortion.
