Mic Test

Test your microphone online: live input level, waveform, a quick recording to play back and the device details. Nothing is uploaded.

Check your microphone

Press Start and allow microphone access when the browser asks. The level bar and waveform react as you speak. The sound stays in this tab and is never uploaded.

Echo cancellation, noise suppression and auto gain are the same filters calls use. Turn them off to hear the raw microphone.

Record and play back

Record five seconds and listen to how you actually sound. The recording exists only in this tab.

Common questions

Why does the level bar not move?

Check that the right microphone is selected, that it is not muted with a hardware switch, and that the system input volume is not at zero. If the bar stays at No signal with the correct device, the microphone or its cable is the likely fault.

What level should my microphone have?

Normal speech should keep the bar in the green part, roughly −40 to −10 dB. Below that you sound too quiet; a red Clipping warning means the signal hits the ceiling and distorts, so lower the input volume or move back from the mic.

Is my voice recorded or uploaded?

No. The sound is analysed in this tab only. The five-second recording is kept in browser memory for playback and disappears when you leave the page.
