Key notes
Not too long after announcing plans for thenewer generation of Teams, Microsoft revamped its beloved teleconferencing app with a spatial audio feature.
The feature has arrived inPublic Previewfor several select insiders. Once toggled on, users of wired stereo headsets or built-in speakers position the voices of participants across the virtual meeting stage, providing a more realistic and engaging conversation.
With that being said, however, being an insider-only feature means that spatial audio on Microsoft Teams may still be far from reaching primetime, and isn’t available for wireless headphone users yet.
If you’re still curious about how to make it work, make sure to join Teams Public Preview and then follow these steps.
