How to Change Your Voice on XBox Live

Online gaming with voice communication definitely has its advantages. Players can speak with each other and make strategies on the fly while playing a game rather than the antiquated move of talking on the phone. This feature has been available on computers for a long time, but Microsoft took voice communication even further when it introduced the voice masking feature in Xbox Live.
