Hi Darren, Along with the help you might get on AccessUK, try: skype-english-subscribe@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Peter -----Original Message----- From: access-uk@xxxxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:access-uk@xxxxxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of Darran Ross Sent: Thursday, October 13, 2005 9:26 AM To: Access-UK Subject: [access-uk] Skype Setup Question Hi List. Just getting to grips with this whole skype malarkey, and have hit on one slight problem. When running the "Echo 1 2 3" test for my microphone, the playback of my voice is there, but it sounds quite distant. Not at all in keeping with the rest of the audio I playback. I've followed the advice given by Skype in their Help section, but I don't seem able to increase this speech playback volume. I've tried two stand-alone microphones and one headset, each with the same results. Can a more experienced Skype user perhaps guide me in the right direction for a solution?
