# Voice Communication Setup

## Required Software

- **Audio for VATSIM (AFV) Standalone Client** – This client is necessary to connect to the VATSIM audio servers, as EuroScope doesn't natively support the new Audio for VATSIM (AFV) codec.

- Alternatively, instead of AFV, one may also use the **TrackAudio** voice client.

        - This software offers a higher fidelity radio simulation, but does not RDF (see the RDF section in this guide for more info on what that is.)
