voice prompt file format and sampling rate

[yeow_km]

i have request to upload new voice prompt for the contact centre express, what is the audio format required ?

i convert the original file from mp3 to wav but when I test it out, all i get is distorted noise.

what should i use ?

bit resolution - 8/16/32 bit

sampling rate - 1000Hz to 96000hz

audio channel - mono/stereo

Hi,

Prompt format is CCITT u-Law, 8 kHz, 8 bit mono for the WAV files

To convert your prompt for these parameters please use Audacity,Goldwave or any online converter.

Regards,

DJ

managed to get it working using goldwave.

initially i convert the files using online converter that didnt allow me to choose u-Law.

my user find the voice prompt a little too soft.

how can I make it louder  in volume ??

Hi,

 Yes we can increase using audacity software . open the file and increase or decrease the volume .

To increase or decrease the volume, use the slider bar with the +/- to increase/decrease the sound.

if you want to record use gold wave software .go to Tools -speech  converter type the text and save as  speak to file
