[Released to GA] Now in public preview: Language Interpretation
We already set up some tests with our professional interpreters. Location Brussels (Belgium)
We also noticed the volume-automatism, it seems good. The audio quality is super.
Some feedback:
- making it possible to change your channel as end user during the meeting, not having to reconnect to change
- making it possible for the translators to switch their interpretation direction (f.e. FR->NL to NL->FR) with simple button clicks
Next days we are setting up our rooms (with translator boots) for hybrid setup with this system with system accounts.
We waited long for this feature, it is already great and easy for end users internal & external!

Hi Steven10
Did you say that you are seeing the audio of the other participant drop when the translator is speaking ("Audio Ducking")? As in our tests, we are not seeing that.
No volume changes, the translator is a little higher than everyone else, but you can very clearly hear both and a little too much. So you hear the translator and the patricipant at similar volumes and it is just hard to follow a meeting like this. It just sounds like two participants talking over eachother. If you are seeing the volume of the other participants duck lower when the translator speaks and then retrun to normal when they stop, I would be interested to hear?
- Patricia_YoungSep 07, 2022Copper ContributorAgreed, a toggle button for interpreters to switch languages is sorely needed. Also, there doesn't seem to be an option to allow for relais, since the interpreters only hear the floor and not other channels.
- M AnandanSep 14, 2022Copper ContributorHow to disable this feature for the tenant . I dont find the option in teams meeting policy. Please advice

Steven10Wow... this is big and long due in MS Teams. Do you have any estimate on when this will be rolled out?
