Trader voice recording has unique characteristics which require additional configuration when deploying a real time trader voice recording integration.
Media Processing
Voice Activity Detection (VAD) is an important feature of trader voice recording. VAD allows the recorder to detect voice activity and only record when a configured volume threshold (in decibels) is reached in the recorded audio.VAD is enabled by default for all trader voice recording integrations. It is not recommended to disable this feature, because certain call types, such as open lines, are continuously recorded while there is no continuous voice activity and the system would generate a lot of data (silence) unnecessarily.
Call Splitting is another important feature of trader voice recording.
