If you've got someone that's joined the meeting and their audio is fluctuating a lot, if you as the engineer want to remotely turn their audio up or down, is there any way to do that on a per-user basis?

You can adjust Zoom mix levels per participant and apply compression with visible metering to individual feeds coming over Zoom.

5:48it's broken but you should be able to see the frame rate uh that will auto retry to do the maximum that's allowed in the meeting uh so someone drops down or retry and try to pull and back up once it's available but I will have a diagnostic panel which is right now it's mostly this so it's able to pull and I can use this with AI to kind of troubleshoot it. And what if you've
6:14got someone that's joined the meeting let's say that is their audio is fluctuating a lot if you as the engineer want to remotely turn their audio up or down is there any way to do that on a per user basis I can't control their machine audio but you know I can go into the actual zoom mix here and I can turn it up turn it down okay I can apply
6:39compression so you can see there's a little meter here or you can if I really dig into this you're gonna see compression kind of go and then whatever ratio so you have the ability to make some in-app changes to the audio that's coming over Zoom. That's great. I think this is a fantastic example of a person that clearly has video production experience,
7:02but also has the audio background, because I know you've mixed live shows before. So it's great. You've got the best of both worlds. You've got that knowledge. Because I often find with a lot of production tools, without calling any specific tools out, that you can very much tell when the people that have made an app are more video than audio-centric. and it just seems that there are a lot of production tools
7:24where the audio part is not as fully fleshed out or fully thought out, which is always frustrating. So this is incredibly cool to see. And this looks like a very, I can see a lot of people that are just starting out, maybe that don't have the budget for a lot of expensive subscription-based tools, which a lot of them that are out there are fantastic,
7:46don't get me wrong. But I think for a lot of people that are maybe just starting out that wanna start a podcast, for example, or maybe they're running sound and video at a small church and they don't have a huge budget. And sometimes, you know, all these subscription tools can get really expensive. You know, these costs start to add up over time.
