Ambient noise reduction

I wonder where to find this option on my MacBook ? because there is no such option in menu. Moreover I didn’t notice any changes in recording quality in comparison with my old macbook air 2014. I seem 4 inputs microphone system doesn’t work. Initially I faced some problems during FaceTime calls. Voice of partner sometimes interrupts if I start to speak or if there is some backside sounds, it causes lot’s of inconsistencies.

MacBook Pro 16″, macOS 10.15
