We discovered that the 2-way audio could be a problem during a webcam chat session with a cam girl. First of all, without headphones, echo feedback may occur which can be very uncomfortable during an audio chat. The echo issue is suppressed when you plug headphones into your device.
Nevertheless, it is not enough. It is also important to have a good microphone to be well understood by the cam model. We found that many microphones on laptops can be of poor quality. It is not the only problem. Sometimes the audio drivers that work with the microphone are also subpar.
Smartphone headphones with built-in microphone: bad idea
We found that smartphone microphones connected via a mini-jack can also cause problems. Since the microphone is often positioned near the chest, it tends to move as you move, occasionally bumping against your chest. While you might not notice it on your end, the camgirl may hear loud thumping or scratching noises, which can be disruptive.
Additionally, some smartphone headphones can create feedback and echo issues, as the microphone may pick up sound coming from the earphones. Moreover, mini-jack headphones rely on your device’s audio card, and if the audio drivers or hardware aren’t functioning properly, this can further degrade audio quality.
Headsets
The best solution for an audio cam-to-cam chat session with a cam girl is a headset or high quality earbuds.
I see two categories of headsets to chat with webcam girls in private chat sessions: USB headsets and Bluetooth headsets.
USB Headsets
USB headsets generally work very well with Windows. They’re easy to set up and function instantly. Since the microphone is positioned away from your chest and the headphones, you can move or gesture freely without causing noise or interference.
A USB connection is superior to a mini-jack connection because it bypasses your computer’s built-in audio card and uses the USB headset’s own drivers. This is beneficial, as many onboard audio cards and their drivers are of poor quality. If you use a mini-jack headset, you may still encounter issues because it relies on your current audio card and its drivers. So, if you’re experiencing problems with your laptop’s built-in microphone, it might be due to the mic itself — or just as likely, due to faulty or low-quality drivers.
Bluetooth Headsets
USB headsets can be inconvenient due to the cables. A good alternative is a Bluetooth headset, which offers wireless freedom. However, they do need to be recharged regularly, and pairing them with your computer can sometimes be a bit tricky.
That said, Bluetooth headsets solve the same audio issues as USB headsets. They also use their own audio drivers, avoiding problems related to your system’s audio card. The microphone is positioned well away from the headphones, so there’s no risk of feedback. Plus, with no wires, you can move freely while talking and even step away from the computer without worrying about cable length. Still, Bluetooth headsets come with their own set of limitations — primarily battery life and connection management. If you wish you get more information about using bluetooth headsets, we wrote an article about it.
