What is “Plugged into Skype™”?

It simply means that Imvox has established a partnership with Skype and is part of the Skypekit developer program. The biggest benefit of Imvox’s participation in the Skypekit developer program is it allows us to offer the gaming community crystal clear voice quality, which is used by hundreds of millions of people across the world every day. The Skype partnership also enables Imvox to work cross-platform, so Windows and Mac users enjoy the same high-quality audio. It’s about time a solution works for everybody in the gaming market.

• We’ve carefully crafted the Imvox client to reduce system overhead, so those extra CPU cycles are available to enhance your gaming experience. Other services just route audio, putting the entire burden on your machine.  Our approach here is different than Skype’s traditional peer to peer technology and tailored specifically for the requirements of gamers
• Voice quality automatically scales on our servers, based on performance and network conditions. That means you don’t have to worry about your game slowing down at crucial times in the action
• We’ve also included noise reduction and high quality echo cancellation, so players in noisy locations can join in on the fun without distracting the whole group

Why not give it a try?  We think you’ll be thrilled with what we have to offer. Skype and Imvox are excited to work together to be part of your gaming experience.
