Echo is quite a common issue during streaming—it occurs when the stream is playing back on the same device that does the encoding. This problem is also present on Parsec and is undoubtedly annoying, leading to difficulties understanding your teammates. Thankfully, we know how to fix the issue.
In this guide, we’ll explain how to stop echo during your Parsec stream using several methods. Additionally, we’ll explain why it appears and answer the most common questions related to audio issues on Parsec.
There are two primary methods to eliminate echo on Parsec. For both methods, you must be the host of the game. The first method involves adjusting settings in Parsec and is typically easier but may not always resolve the issue. Follow the steps below:
If adjusting Parsec’s audio settings didn’t help, you may have to install additional software on your PC, such as VB-Cable. Follow these instructions:

In this section, we’ll address common questions related to sound settings on Parsec.
If you’re using Discord to communicate on Parsec, try to eliminate echo through the Discord app first:
Echo Cancellation is a feature on Parsec that reduces the sound of all channels when someone talks. If multiple players are talking simultaneously, you will only hear the one who started talking first. If you prefer hearing all your teammates, you can try fixing the echo issue using other methods, such as adjusting your device settings via VB-Cable. Echo may also be influenced by room acoustics—consider softening your environment with carpets or wall hangings to reduce echo.
Hopefully, our guide has helped you eliminate echo on Parsec. If you aren’t the host, share a link to this article with your friend who’s streaming the game. Fixing this issue usually takes little time, but clear audio significantly enhances communication with teammates and ultimately improves your gaming experience.
