Google Meet rolls out multi-device adaptive audio merging

In a large room, perfect syncing is actually impossible since different listeners will be far enough from each other speakers to cause, at best, comb filtering, and at worst, audible delays.

I assume that if speakers are not set too loud then either you're close and the algorithm works or you're far and sound is quiet enough that it's not an issue.

If the speakers are not set too loud, you don't need the algorithm at all.

If you're sitting next to each other with regular volume then clearly you do, with the same volume, but across a room it's probably going to be ok.
