Out of curiosity what phone do you have?
- simfree 4y agoOP should clean both microphones on their phone, usually a sewing needle or thin toothpick can do the trick, but 99% Isopropyl on a toothbrush might be needed afterwards if the grill inside that protects the microphone is also clogged up. Both microphones need to be cleaned of any blockages so the hardware echo and noise cancellation on a given phone works well. Otherwise you've got distorted audio getting processed as if it's not distorted...
- hunter2_ 4y agoImportant question because a microphone array (which exists on some phones, and things like home voice assistants) can be steered into the equivalent of a shotgun mic's pattern, or even more focused than that. It's just that an algorithm aims it toward the strongest signal, instead of the user aiming a hypercardioid mic manually. Either way, this is what reduces the ratio of reverberant room sound ("echo").
