Lisa,<br><br>One thing to consider is that the XAP 800 does noise cancellation along with echo cancellation. We're still using an older model that only does echo, but this should help you take care of the noise problem in the room. Others on the list can probably speak to how well it works for noise cancellation.

Good morning,<br><br>I am a project lead for an AG node at CSU. The room we are considering<br>using is quite noisy and we're trying to find the best possible solution<br>for this issue.<br><br>Short of re-locating the room (or the two large air-conditioning units) I'm
<br>looking for microphones that might help with noise reduction. Has anyone<br>else dealt with noise reduction successfully by using a specific brand or<br>type of microphone? Or used any other tricks of the trade?<br><br>
Thanks in advance for any help!<br>Lisa Metz<br>--<br>Lisa Metz<br>Computer Support Analyst<br>Engineering Network Services<br>Phone: 491-3465<br>Email: <a href="mailto:lmetz@engr.colostate.edu">lmetz@engr.colostate.edu</a>
