Set it as low as you can without hearing jitter. Next, the wizard will play a sample voice recording and ask you to adjust your latency. In most cases, you can leave the defaults selected, but you’ll probably want to change them if you’re using an external microphone and/or speakers. The wizard will first prompt you to choose your audio devices.

You can click “Cancel” at any time to abort the wizard and fall back to using default settings, but I’ll cover all the steps here. When you run the client for the first time, a set-up wizard will walk you through some steps to optimize your sonic experience:
#MUMBLE SERVER SETUP MAC OS#
Mumble runs on Linux, Mac OS X, and Windows. You can get a third-party client (such as Cmumble, a command-line client for Linux), or you can go the traditional route and get the official Mumble client. To connect to a group chat that already exists somewhere in Internetland, all you need is a Mumble client.

See this informative video for more information. Mumble also uses positional audio, so output will be properly distributed among your surround-sound speakers. Mumble has significantly lower audio latency than both Ventrilo and Skype, and the sound quality, which uses the open-source CELT codec, is higher than theirs as well. Mumble simply offers a better balance of low latency and sound quality than other popular VOIP software. Why Use Mumble Instead of Ventrilo, Skype, or TeamSpeak? If you’re only interested in setting up the server, skip ahead. Today I’m going to walk you through (A) using the Mumble client to connect to an existing Murmur instance, and (B) hosting your own chat room with Murmur. Generally speaking, the name “Mumble” refers to either the Mumble protocol or a Mumble client application, while “Murmur” refers to the actual server component on which a group chat is running.
