adjust volume for individual callers in a meeting
I was just wondering if there was an option that I had missed that allows me to change the volume of individual participants in a meeting. I regularly have meetings where some people are really loud,...
I'm not sure OP is really asking to be able to control another user's mic, but rather the ability to adjust the volume you receive them at from your side, much like Discord has.
If you have one user really quiet and, one user practically eating the mic, or really loud, you can't adjust the volume as it stands to be able to comfortably hear both participants, as they are both controlled by a single volume control, rather than independently.
Hi,
Audio volume is managed per device from the said device. It gets tricky when some may have a device very close to them and others may have this further away. By default Teams has built in capability to auto-adjust the mic level. So how does it work? if you set the mic level to 50% before the call. Teams smarts might push it up to say 80%. That now becomes the new default. This function can be a bit hit and miss, no toggle to turn off at the moment. Just remember, for the best experience, always use certified for Teams devices.

The problem is telling a ceo or upper management that the audio is junk and to turn the mike down when it’s much easier to adjust an individual’s input audio that doesn’t affect that specific users microphone settings…
You just need to adjust individual’s input audio just like we can turn the overall audio up or down

- My colleagues and I have a similar issue. Our boss's voice was damaged when he was a child, so he has a low and gravelly voice that we struggle to hear on calls.
His voice seems ok in Zoom meetings though so maybe we'll just start using that instead
