Audio Tips • Consider globally muting participants at the start of the meeting to avoid
noise issues. Turn off system prompts/sounds for when attendees join or leave a meeting.
• Introduce yourself when you begin speaking and ask other attendees to also identify themselves before speaking. Not everyone in the meeting may know everyone else's voice.
• Share these tips with attendees who use a telephone: – If you find you are having a sound quality issue, hang up and dial back in.
Sometimes problems clear up when a bad connection is terminated. – Familiarize yourself w/Voice Conferencing conference call features. – Call in to the meeting from a location without background noise. – Avoid using cellular/cordless phones because of static. Phone handsets or
headsets work better than speakerphones to avoid background noise, tunnel effect and sentence clipping.
– Turn off call waiting. Avoid putting phone on hold.
