Hey @emeresbestres1, Let me explain what sidetone is and how it works, particularly with the Orosound Tilde Pro and why it’s important, especially in a high-quality ANC (Active Noise Cancellation) headset. Sidetone is the feature that lets you hear your own voice through your headset while you're speaking on a call. Essentially, it feeds a small portion of your voice back into your ears, almost like an echo, but in real-time. This gives you the feedback you need to adjust your speaking volume without shouting or whispering. With an ANC headset like the Orosound Tilde Pro, ambient noise is significantly reduced, which means you might not naturally hear your own voice clearly. Without sidetone, it's easy to speak too loudly or too softly because of this "blocking" effect. Sidetone helps you maintain a natural speaking volume, which is important for clear communication, especially on calls. How Does Sidetone Work on Orosound Products? In Orosound’s Link software, you can adjust the sidetone from levels 0 to 5. This gives you control over how much of your voice is fed back to you. A higher setting means more of your voice is heard, which can be useful if you’re in a very quiet space or if you’re wearing the headset for extended periods. The balance sidetone provides ensures that you aren’t inadvertently raising your voice to compensate for the noise-canceling effect. For the Tilde Evo, sidetone likely works similarly, and you should be able to adjust it to your liking for optimal comfort during long calls or when working in a noisy environment. Hope that helps clear things up! Let me know if you have any more questions.
Hi I appreciate the comment and I do! Businessheadsets.com is now sponcering my videos and if you use the voucher code "herehear" they are giving my viewers free shipping within the UK. I have been working in the Headset industry for almost a decade and the team based in High Wycombe are awesome.

Hi, that's a great question. It sounds like you're referring to the Environmental Noise Cancellation (ENC) feature, which is achieved through the microphone cancelling out background noise for the listeners / customers benefit. ANC, or Active Noise Cancellation, is different as it reduces surrounding noise for you the user, which unfortunately can't be fully appreciated through this video. However, I assure you, its performance is quite impressive. Regarding noise cancellation via the dongle, there is a noticeable improvement when used on a PC. The video you mentioned was recorded using Bluetooth on my mobile phone due to my current setup, which provided the best video quality at the time. You do definitely give me a couple of ideas for a couple of short explainer videos so I am extremely grateful for your comment.
Hi there, I'm interested in getting more details on this. The feedback on sound quality from real-world usage has been positive. As I'm new to this channel, could there be an error on my side with the setup? Thank you!
thanks so much
You're welcome!
I'm currently waiting for the Orosound Evo and was wondering how does the sidetone work on Orosound products.

Thanks for the review. Can you suggest a trustworthy company to buy from in the UK?

Thanks for the review. I am just curious if the ANC is tested when the headset is connected via usb dongle on a laptop or via bluetooth?

the mic doesn't work on windows when connected through bluetooth, only works when connected via USB
Are you using the Orosound supported software? www.orosound.com/orosound-link/
The mic sounds horrific
