Where that option was gone on 3.5.3.
There is no AGC in Capture any longer. AGC is now in Playback.
When your own volume still goes up and down but the other user has no AGC in playback enabled, then your driver or hardware is doing this.
The local test mode has AGC for Playback enabled.
Iām sure 100% that diver has nothing to do with the volume change.
Why is that on the Playback and not on Capture where was in the first place ?
Why i need to increase my volume when i donāt speak to capture the Background sound.
Why when testing the MIC the volume of my MIC keeps Increasing ?
That just just changes the volume only on the client side when receive a voice from others.
And that option is not boosting anything, just changes the volume of sound peer client.
My problem is that my Microphone keeps boosting and sending loud sound.
When testing the the microphone the background noise keeps increasing and when i start to speak is too loud. Why i canāt stop that with the AGC that was in Capture to stop this ?
Why you removed it. Is usefull.
Is a big differance betwen AGC and AGL.
Yes and no.
This is the part that is true.
This is not really true..
So the test uses AGC on your input (I guess to show how you sound to someone that uses AGC)
But in reality the unmodified audiostream is send to the server and only boosted at the receivers client.
Thus if someone complains about it he has to (update and) disable AGC in his playback options.
Not sure how that really works. If the Capture is detecting the sound intensity with the old AGC on or not.
Iām a little confuse how the capture testing is now because before i really know how my microphone recording should be sound with my microphone default boost from settings.

I hope this little illustration helps a bit. AFAIK there is no way to really test your microphone without AGC atm (donāt ask me why).
So i found this to be annoying. If a person no speaking is busting his sound with the Background Noise like has the MIC in the wind and is cant hear other persons. When starting speaking still is EarRip because the AGL is too slow in first 200ms of something like that, and when is lowering his sound i think is too low instated to Normalize by the āVoice Volume Adjustemetā.
My idea was to geep the old AGC and add the Normalize the sound by āVoice Volume Adjustemetā ?
Just to Normalize the tone if is more loud that āVoice Volume Adjustemetā to prevent the EarRipe ?
I have also problem with the AGC when I speak, TS turn my microphone level automaticly higher than normal and Iām too loud for other people and there is a big rustle in the background. On 3.3.2 the was the option to turn of the AGC.. I miss it. Because im on a roleplay server and they use TS for communication and TS on 3.5 or higher is for me not usableā¦
Hello everyone,
the automatic volume adjustment of TeamSpeak (AGC) causes that whenever I stop speaking the gain is increased and you hear static noise for a short period of time. As soon as the automatic volume adjustment is deactivated, there is no noise anymore. If I directly record the microphone or use another application like Discord there is also no static noise at all.
Since the latest TeamSpeak version the option has unfortunately moved to the playback settings, so I cannot influence the AGC for my own signal anymore.
Do any of you have an idea how to solve this problem?
Example of the Problem (1. TS with AGC, 2. Direct Output from Microphone): https://youtu.be/Z0UoGlw3ZWk
Microphone: Rode PodMic
Interface: Focusrite Scarlett Solo (3rd Gen)
I get what you report but the thing is there is no AGC Feature any longer for input (Microphone, stereo Mix etc.). This is why there is no setting under the capture tab.
What could be is that your device is sending really low at the end and the playback part things that it needs to raise the volume.
Also raising the volume could cause the noise you hear.
You may lower the volume of the microphone below 100. From my experience something around 50 is enough. Everything above caused distortions.
Short summary.
-
Capture has no AGC in TeamSpeak.
The only way to have a AGC similar feature on input is the signal that was send from the device/driver to the client. TeamSpeak does not touch this or has any control over it. -
Only Playback (what you hear when other talk to you) has the AGC feature.
-
When you do a local test then you will always hear the result as AGC playback was enabled.
This problem doesnāt exist when I playback the mic on windows. my voice will hold the same audio level.
In TeamSpeak however, it will turn my voice higher and higher, until u canāt understand anymore.
I already disabled AGC on playback options but it wonāt change it.
What can I do?
did u find a solution? I have the same problem
It could be that your microphone volume settings or your loudness from your voice is low and AGC (playback!) on other clients try to raise it to an acceptable level.
You may check that out.
Thatās because there is no AGC feature or setting for your microphone in our client.
I donāt think is a fix. I donāt use TS anymore. That setting is awful.
Instated to be per client (like previous) and add an slider to adjust the boost, now is per other client.
And to be a Sound Normalize per other client.
I agree 100%. Without that, TS was working absolutely fine and now this shitty auto-adjust is ripping the ears of my friends. We are using discord now, because TeamSpeak has become unbearable.
I have a little workaround for people who are as desperate as I was, but who are not yet willing to switch clients:
TeamSpeak 3-Client-win64-3.3.2 works fine and does not have this stupid auto-setting.
You should be okay using that older version, with automatic voice volume leveling disabledā¦
I also think that moving AGC to playback is really bad. Before people could enable it for themself if needed and if the āearrape issueā occured with somebody, you could just tell him to disable AGC. Now you have to decide whether you want AGC enabled for everybody or nobody. If Person A has the issue of getting too loud when not saying anything and Person B is too quiet without AGC, youāre pretty much lost since you canāt disable it for A and enable it for B (you had to tell them to do so before but then the problems were solved for everybody in the channel). Also you have to enable it for everybody, if only one person has mic issues and everybody else has perfect sound/volumeā¦
Also, why would you want AGC when testing the Microphone??? If you have an Interface or something with adjustable mic volume, you canāt find the right volume without asking people on the server (who must have disabled AGC) or using third party softwareā¦ And if your microphone is too quiet or too loud you might not even realize because of AGC, which is basically the opposite of what you want to achieve by testing the mic.
AGC should be an option for people who realize in the mic test that it has the wrong volume and are unable to do something about it, therefore it should be on the recording side and only enabled if really needed.
Iām using TeamSpeak since a lot of years now and I always liked TeamSpeak more than Discord, Mumble etc. But Iām facing a lot of issues with AGC. I downgraded the Version a while ago but today I decided to Update again and check if itās better now. And no it is not.
In my opinion it should be removed completely. It is way to aggressive on the gain.
The issue is when Iām speaking normal or more quiet it is increasing my gain very much. When Iām in a round of CS:GO or something else and I start screaming āRUSH Bā all my friends are hearing loss.
This is not working as it should be and will never. I think there are two options for improving it.
Either remove it or add a procedure where it mesures the ānormalā Audio gain and stays at that gain.
When Iām whispering I donāt want to be that loud as TeamSpeak is regulating.
