Why can I hear an echo of my own voice in my headphones while monitoring?

Category: Sound

Hearing your own voice echo in headphones during monitoring usually indicates audio feedback loops or multiple active audio sources conflicting with each other.

1. Check for multiple active audio sources

• You must ensure there is only one active audio source for your microphone
• Multiple active sources for the same microphone create echo effects

2. Avoid speaker monitoring in the same room

• Using speakers or external audio playback creates feedback echo
• Control all sound sources within your streaming space
• Use headphones exclusively for monitoring to prevent echo
