Get visual feedback on whether your microphone setup failed or worked right. What is the optimal range of mic distance, gain, background noise, and echo (dotted bar). And if your audio stands in that range or not.

What you can see in our mic tester's overview.

• Distance from Mic - Were you too close to the mic and huffing into it? Or far from it to sound too quiet?
• Gain - Did you set your microphone gain too high, distorting your audio? Or is it too low, making your audio noisy after the boost?
• Background Noise - Does your audio have background noise, ambient or white noise? Because your mic picked up every noise around you? Or you recorded in a chaotic place.
• Echo & Reverb - Is your audio sounding hollow? Did your mic catch the room reverb?

Improve your recording. And stop wasting hours in editing.

Here are a few quick checks:

• Grant mic permission: Make sure your browser has access to your microphone. You’ll see a prompt when you start the mic test. Click “Allow”.
• Mic connection: Double-check if your microphone is connected properly. Or the mic cable is not damaged or loose.
• Correct input device: Under the “Select Microphone” dropdown, ensure you have selected the right mic or input device.
• Mic in use elsewhere: Check if any other app is using your mic (E.g. Zoom, Discord, Teams, etc.). If yes, then it may block your mic access here. Close those apps and try again.

You recorded an hour-long podcast. But when you play it, all you hear is your distant voice. Your words are barely recognizable. Turns out, your mic placement was off.

Or you narrated an audiobook, lost in the story’s flow and modulating your voice. So, you did not realize that you blurted pops and sniffs into the mic. The results have harsh breaths and plosives.

You might have had a Zoom interview with your podcast guest. It was a great conversation. But when you heard it, it was boomy. Your mic picked up voices bouncing off from walls and other surfaces.

Or you recorded vocals, but the final audio has more noise than your voice. Or worse, your mic was not connected properly, and there is no voice now.

Would you rerecord all that? Dreadful, right?

For mic positioning, echo, noise, or volume levels. Testing if your mic is working, in a few seconds, can save you hours of editing or reshooting your content.

No one likes to hear honking vehicles or that random fan noise in your show. Or sometimes your recording setup just fails, and you end up with a breathy or echoey podcast.

What saves your audio and time here? Reshooting or manual editing? None.

Automate audio editing. Remove background noise, get rid of heavy breath, fillers, and click sounds. Or remove reverb from audio. Or level your audio.

And that distorted recording? Fix it and make it sound brighter or softer.
