Meeting Audio Setup Checklist #
Choose your operating system and meeting translation goals. The checklist will show two configurations: what to set in Transync AI, and what to set in your meeting app.

Set This in the Meeting App #
Select a translation goal to show the matching meeting app screenshot.
- Microphone:Normal microphoneVirtual microphoneChoose whether you are willing to share your screen first
- Speaker:Normal headphones or speakers

- What the other side ultimately hears:Only your original voiceOriginal voice + translated voiceOnly translated voiceChoose whether you are willing to share your screen first
Select at least one translation goal to generate the recommended setup.
You selected two-way voice playback. If Transync AI only has one shared output device, the other speaker’s translated audio may be sent back into the meeting, or the other side may not hear your translated audio. Prefer one playback direction and use subtitles for the other direction.
On Mac, do not rely only on “Default Microphone”. Prefer a clearly named real microphone or Transync AI virtual microphone.
