What is Noise Suppression in MS Teams?

How to Turn On Noise Suppression
Access your settings in Teams
Open the installed version of Microsoft Teams
Click on your profile, then select "Settings"
In the Settings, select "Devices", then select the drop down menu for "Noise Suppression"
Setting Selection
Your current selection will be "Auto (Default)". However, depending on your microphone, this may not be sufficient to eliminate background noise
Select "High" for maximum noise suppression.
This will use the most internet bandwidth of the options. If you regularly experience issues with Teams video/audio quality, or internet bandwidth issues, this is not the selection for you.
Select "Low" for better connection and "more" noise suppression than "Auto". Meeting attendees may still hear some background music or television sound.
Select "Off" if you want your meeting attendees to hear any ambient noise in your environment.
