Frequently Asked Questions

The mix-minus is effective, but it's best used in relatively quiet spaces to avoid introducing unwanted noise into the remote participant's feed.
It's reliable for both, but I’d recommend testing your latency with your streaming software beforehand to ensure a smooth experience.
