Oof. Thanks for the feedback. I guess I could use some advice on how to proceed.

For Twitter Spaces, I had tried using a microphone with my phone, but learned that I could not output sound to a bluetooth headset at the same time. I was relegated to using the speaker of the phone to listen. Since I sounded so poor when I tried to use the headset as input and output, I have now been using just the phone directly. I got some remarks that it sounded better and nobody had complained since, so I assumed that it was at least okay now. Since I’m not using my headset these days anyway, I guess I could try to use the microphone again. I’ll do some testing before the recap tomorrow. I had tried to use my computer for Twitter Spaces, but unfortunately the web interface doesn’t allow you to raise your hand or show other speaker’s raised hand and that made the interaction with guests significantly worse.

If you are referring to my sound quality in the recent Nodesignal podcast, that’s mostly my fault. I was going to borrow my colleagues high-quality microphone, but asked to late, so I ended up just using my laptop’s microphone.

Do you happen to know of a microphone setup that is compatible with an Android Phone, but would also allow me to listen to the Spaces with headphones? I’d be happy to throw some money to improve the Optech Recap, since I actually do that every week, and I’m sure any microphone I’d get for my phone would also work with my computer.
