What is the audio quality like when I use Sessionwire?
The Sessionwire web application utilizes a well known audio codec alongside proprietary software to transmit audio at an effective 48kHz 32-bit floating over our dedicated stereo HQ Audio stream at 400kbps.
There is also a dedicated Talkback Audio stream that transmits separately and utilizes echo cancellation and noise suppression - just like a Zoom or Skype call.
Should Sessionwire detect instability in the network connection between participants, the quality of the video stream will be dropped in order to keep the audio bitrate stable - ensuring that the high quality audio is heard as intended - even in the case of an unstable internet connection.
