Three steps to make sure your voice comes through the way it actually sounds.
Join Your Lesson on Proton MeetAll online lessons run on Proton Meet. It keeps the audio clean so breath, quiet notes, and backing tracks all come through clearly. Run through this once before your first session and it'll be second nature after that.
Nothing to install. Chrome, Edge, Firefox, or Safari all work. You'll use the same studio link every lesson (button below). Click it a few minutes early so you can test your camera and mic.
Tip: Use headphones on this device. It stops the sound from looping back and echoing.
Any phone, tablet, or second laptop with a speaker will do. You'll play backing tracks and warm-ups out loud on that second device so your microphone picks them up alongside your voice. Keep it about an arm's length from you.
Why: If the music plays through the same device you're on the call with, the call software cancels it out. A second device solves that.
This is the big one. Noise cancellation is designed for speech, not singing. It strips out breath, quiet notes, and the music from your second device. Switch it off in three places if they apply to you: your operating system, your browser, and inside Proton Meet.
How to disable noise cancellation
Settings > System > Sound > (your mic) > turn off Audio enhancements. If you've got Voice Isolation or Voice Focus in your headset app (Logitech, Razer, etc.), turn that off too.
Control Center (top-right menu bar) > Mic Mode > set to Standard. Make sure Voice Isolation is NOT selected.
While the browser is open and on the call, swipe down to Control Center > tap Mic Mode > choose Standard.
Settings > Sound & vibration (or Sounds) > look for Noise reduction or Voice Enhancer and turn it off. Samsung devices: check the Phone app settings too.
In Proton Meet's audio settings (gear icon in the call), turn off noise suppression, echo cancellation, and auto-gain if you see them. In Chrome, open chrome://settings/content/microphone and make sure your correct mic is selected.
Hit the record button inside Proton Meet at any time during the session. Great for reviewing exercises, warm-ups, or notes after the lesson ends.
Same studio link every lesson. Bookmark it if that's easier.
If anything's unclear or your setup doesn't behave, reach out and we'll sort it out before your lesson starts.
