### Introduction

This guide provides step-by-step instructions for audio configuration on Cisco Jabber. Sanas requires continuous access to the audio stream to cancel noise from your audio in real time; therefore, Sanas devices must be selected under Cisco Jabber's audio settings.

#### Sanas devices

The following Sanas devices are available based on your operating system:

|     |     |     |
| --- | --- | --- |
| **Audio sources** | **Window** | **macOS** |
| _Microphone_ | Sanas Audio | Sanas Microphone |
| _Speaker_ | Sanas Audio | Sanas Speaker |

### Before you begin

- Ensure that Cisco Jabber and the Sanas applications are already installed on your computer.
- Ensure your Sanas App is running and activated.
- Ensure you have the required permissions on Jabber to modify the audio settings.
