I know what you’re talking about, <sigh>... :-(

Unfortunately there is no such option. I have tried many times to search the 
web for solutions, but all I could find is a discussion on reddit:

https://www.reddit.com/r/Zoom/comments/g9qu9v/
original_sound_and_stereo_options_missing_on/

which suggests a hacky workaround that I have not tried.

Anyway the “low” noise reduction seems to be (ugh...) acceptable.

I think Jamulus should do a much better job, I would like to try it. However 
it is an audio only solution, so you still have to use Zoom or whatever to see 
other participants.

By the way, looks like you’re Italian, like me. If you want to try Jamulus, I 
would be glad to experiment with you.
