How to Add Music on Hold to a Menu Option


Music on Hold is the audio your callers will hear while being forwarded to your forwarding phone numbers. This can be music or a special message. To add a custom Music on Hold Audio File, please follow the steps below:

 

Change Hold Music For a Menu Option

1. Login to your Talkroute account and navigate to the Manager section.

3. If you have already uploaded or recorded an audio file to our system, please skip to step 5. Otherwise, you can create a new audio file by clicking the upload icon next to "What should we play while your callers are waiting?".

When testing these changes, you must dial your Talkroute Phone Number from a phone number that is NOT listed as a Forwarding Phone Number. If you attempt to call your Talkroute Phone Number from a Forwarding Phone Number, the call will disconnect or outbound dialing will be initiated (if enabled).
