Configure similarly on your chosen softphone/conferencing app._ For Sanas to synthesize your audio, Google Meet must route your microphone input through the Sanas audio device. As such, we preconfigured Sanas Microphone to be set by any web-based conferencing apps and softphones as their system default microphone. This allows web-based meeting applications and softphones to automatically use Sanas without requiring users to manually select it. To validate: 1. Open **Google Meet Web** in your Chrome browser and sign in. 2. Navigate to Settings > Audio, then Microphone. **Sanas Microphone** will show as **System default**. > _Note: If a user logs out of the Sanas Chrome Extension, the_ **_Sanas Microphone_** _remains visible in the list of available audio devices in the web app or softphone; however,_ **_Accent Translation_** _will no longer work. Once the user signs back in, the_ **_Sanas Microphone_** _, along with_ **_Accent Translation_** _are automatically restored. A tab refresh may be required before they become fully functional again._ Sanas is now active! Your voice will be processed through the Sanas Chrome Extension for the duration of the call. > _Important! Personalize your accent translated voice to sound consistently and identical. Refer_ [_Personalize voice_ (opens in new tab)](https://help.sanas.ai/portalv3/docs/voice-personalization#for-user-creating-your-voice-profile1) _for instructions._ --- ### Support **Need help?** Get in touch with our [Support Team](mailto:support@sanas.ai) for assistance.
