Service Audio
Service audio is uploaded and stored on the platform against your account using the Audio Management Methods.
Audio from this pool can then be assigned to your services using an integer Audio File reference which is assigned by the platform to each audio file when uploaded.
Having a pool of audio files enables you to assign the same piece of audio to any of your services.
It is recommended that you build a custom application to allow you to maintain a pool of audio files against your account. Web methods are available specifically for this purpose.
Supported Audio Formats
The following audio formats are supported:-
.MP3
MPEG-1 or MPEG-2 Audio Layer III

The platforms native audio format is:-
Format: WAV
Bit Rate: 128 kbps
Sample Rate: 8 kHz

Audio files are converted into this format during the upload process.
It is recommended that your audio files (mp3, wma or wav) are recorded with the same Bit Rate, Sample Rate and Channels as the native format.
Audio files recorded in a higher quality format may have a perceived loss of quality when compared to the original.
