Your mix
Everyone sets their own mix in the Mix tab. Nobody else hears your changes, and they’re Saved for next time.
Levels
| Slider | What it sets |
|---|---|
| Everything | Your overall volume. |
| One per party | How loud that party is in your ears, including program feeds. |
| Ping & call | How loud the chimes and spoken announcements are. |
To turn one person up or down, open Crew and tap their name for their own volume slider.
Program audio
Quieter when someone talks: Program dips so you never miss a call. With it on, program audio drops while anyone on the crew talks, and during pings, calls, and messages read aloud.
Ears
Put each party in your left ear, right ear or both. For each party, choose Left, Both, or Right. A common setup is crew in one ear and the program feed in the other.
Your mic
| Setting | What it does |
|---|---|
| Mic meter | Shows Say something, Sounds good, or Too loud as you talk. |
| Mic level | How loud your voice goes out. Turn it down if it says Too loud. |
| Hear yourself | Your own voice in your headset while your mic is on, so you don’t shout. It’s off on the phone speaker, where it would feed back. |
| Noise cancel | For loud rooms and spots near the PA. Cleans up the noise around you before your voice goes out. |
Voice-activated talk
Voice-activated talk: Lock TALK on and your mic only goes out while you’re speaking. It closes a moment after you stop. Use Sensitivity to set how easily it opens, from Loud room to Quiet. You can also turn it on with Voice on the Talk tab.
Messages
- Read messages aloud: typed messages to you are spoken in your headset, like “Lighting: checking now”.
- Quick replies: the one-tap replies in Messages. Remove ones you don’t use, type your own and tap Add, or Reset to the usual ones (Copy, Yes, No, On my way, Can’t talk right now, Need help).
Announcer voice
Pings, calls, and messages are spoken in a built-in voice. For a clearer one, download the natural voice (Kokoro): tap Download. It’s about 100 MB and runs on the phone, so it works with the screen locked.
Once it’s downloaded, pick a Voice and tap Hear it. Names it doesn’t know are said in the built-in voice. Remove download frees the space.
It needs an iPhone, a 64-bit Android phone, or a Mac with Apple silicon. On other devices you see This device can’t run the natural voice. The Hub has the same setting for the director panel, under Settings → Announcer voice.
Advanced
Most people never need these.

|---|---|
