Quoting: SaladienAre there plans to improve the sound quality?
Most of the problem areas seem to be caused by Google Hangouts' automatic volume adjustment. We've discussed possible alternative recording infrastructure, but I'm not certain where we stand at the moment with regards to that.

I would suggest Mumble.

My voice quality is certainly Google's fault. I have a pro quality lapel mic! AGH. The move to mumble should help.

Mumble's definitely on the table :)

The move to mumble is definitely in the cards to happen soon. We are working it out. Google hangouts is being used a temporary solution. Until the Mumble details are sorted out.
