Delivering a Successful Virtual Session by Ensuring your System is Fully Prepared
The delivery of a virtual session as a speaker relies a lot on the stage preparation. Besides the content that will be delivered it also relies on ensuring your input devices are properly configured.
We will cover how to properly configure your input devices to ensure that a successful session is delivered to your audience.

Ensure that your computer detects your audio devices.
The first step is to confirm and verify that your audio devices are properly detected and operating on your computer, as this can potentially cause issues during your session as a speaker during your virtual conference delivery.
This configuration varies depending on the type of system used, please check the following Help Center Article for instructions for your specific system type: https://sla.yt/system-audio-settings (opens in a new tab).
