Overview

Now that you’ve successfully signed in to TODA Live and joined your first room, let's take a moment to familiarize ourselves with the various in-room settings that are available. We hope you find a variety of options that can enhance your overall meeting experience. Happy exploring!   

Audio Settings

For optimal audio quality during your call, you may adjust your audio input and output settings in the TODA Live Lobby before joining the meeting room. However, if you didn't have a chance to do so, don't worry! 

NOTE: Adjusting this setting will not disrupt the audio for other attendees.

Sound

With our Sound control feature, you can easily turn on or off the sound coming from other attendees within the room. To adjust the sound settings, follow these simple steps: 

        1. Locate the Sound icon at the bottom-left of your room.

       2. Click the Sound icon to temporarily disable the audio coming from other attendees. To resume listening, click the icon again.

TODA TIP: Press the “S” key on your keyboard to enable 
or disable audio coming from other attendees.

Audio Output

By default, the audio during your session will come through your device’s speakers. If you wish to change the output of your audio, follow these steps:

        1. Click the arrow to the right of the Sound icon. You will be presented with the available audio output options.

       2. Select the connected audio output device you would like to use to listen to the meeting room audio. Once you have selected your preferred audio output, the speaker settings will automatically be updated. 

NOTE: The desired speaker will likely be named after the maker of the device. 
For example, if you are using a MacBook laptop, one of the options may be “MacBook {model name} Speakers”  

That’s it, you can now turn on or off the Room audio according to your needs!

Microphone

If you need to change your audio input, such as switching to a different microphone or adjusting your microphone settings, follow these simple steps:

        1. Locate the Microphone icon at the bottom left-hand side of your Room. 

NOTE: If the microphone is turned on, other attendees will be able to hear any audio that is coming from your device. To help monitor your audio, there is a small volume indicator located to the left of your name. This indicator will fill up and deplete as noise is picked up.

       2. Click the Microphone icon to temporarily disable the audio coming from your computer. To resume speaking to room attendees, click the icon again. 

TODA TIP: Press the “M” key on your keyboard to enable or disable your microphone.

Audio Input

By default, audio will be picked up through your computer microphone. If you wish to change the input of your audio, follow these steps:

        1. Click the arrow to the right of the Microphone icon. You will be presented with the available audio input options, directly above the Microphone icon. 

        2. Select the microphone you would like to use to speak to the meeting room. Once you have selected your preferred audio input, the microphone settings will automatically be updated. 

NOTE: The desired audio input will typically be named after the maker of the device. For example, if you are using a MacBook laptop, one of the microphone options may be “MacBook {model name} Microphone” 

Video Settings

For the best video quality during your meeting, adjust your video input and quality settings in the TODA Live Lobby before joining the meeting room. However, you can also adjust settings while in your meeting room. Your camera will be activated by default upon joining a room, but here's how you can modify your video settings within the meeting room.

Camera

Enabling your camera during a meeting allows for video communication with other attendees, creating a more personal and interactive experience.

       1. Locate the Camera icon at the bottom-left of your room. 

NOTE: If the camera icon is shown as “on”, attendees in the room will be able to see you and anything visible within the background of your frame. 

        2. Click the Camera icon to temporarily disable the video feed from your computer. To resume your video feed, click the icon again. 

TODA TIP: Press the “C" key on your keyboard to enable and disable the video feed from your computer. 

Video Input

By default, video will be received through your computer camera. If you want to change the input of your video, follow these steps:

        1. Click the arrow to the right of the Camera icon. You will be presented with the available video input and quality options, directly above the Camera icon. 

         2. Select the camera you would like to use in the meeting room.

NOTE: The desired video input will usually be dependent on the maker of the device. For example, if you are using a MacBook laptop, one of the camera options may be “FaceTime HD Camera.”  

         3. Next, to enhance the clarity of your video, you can adjust the video quality settings in the meeting room. Simply select the desired video quality from the list provided. Once you have selected your preferred video input and quality, the camera settings will automatically be updated.

TODA TIP: The higher the number, the better quality your resolution will be.
