Best Audio Settings for Call of Duty: Vanguard

Audio customization options in Call of Duty: Vanguard allow you to change volume, music, hitmarker effects, voice chat, and several other settings. Here's a guide to the best audio settings in Vanguard.

• Master Volume - 100
• Music Volume - 0
• Dialogue Volume - 50
• Sound Effects Volume - 100

Keep the music volume off unless you are playing the Campaign. Music in Multiplayer interferes with other sound effects, but some players like keeping it on while in the lobby. Moreover, keep the dialogue volume low if you don't want the announcer continuously shouting in your ears.

• Audio Mix - Headphones
• Killstreak Music - Off
• Mono Audio - Off
• Game Sound Device - Default System Device

There are four Audio Mix options to choose from—Home Theater, TV Speaker, Headphones, Night Mode. You can pick whatever mix you like the most by testing it out. Nonetheless, Headphones Audio Mix has a great experience.
