3CX Add-on · by VoIPTools

All your call audio.
One console.

Audio Announcer unifies three essential 3CX tools: Recording Beep, Agent Greetings, and Barge Messages. The right beep, greeting, and message play automatically, on exactly the calls you choose.

Three tools · one interface

Three jobs your phone system
should never get wrong.

Audio Announcer brings them together with shared reporting, logs, role-based access, and custom branding. You manage all of it from a single browser-based console that connects to your 3CX.

The case for automation

The messages that protect your business shouldn't depend on memory.

In a busy contact center, things slip. A notice gets forgotten. A greeting comes out differently every time, or doesn't happen at all. A long compliance script gets rushed or skipped. Each gap is a risk; each inconsistency chips away at the experience you built. Audio Announcer removes the human variable entirely.

"I forgot to say the call was being recorded."
Every agent greets callers a little differently.
Long legal disclaimers get rushed or mangled.
No record of what was actually played, or when.
Module 01 · Recording Beep

Recording transparency,
on autopilot.

An audible beep tells everyone on the line the call is being recorded, so you stay transparent and compliant without depending on agents to say a word.

  • Per-department control: each department gets its own independent settings.
  • Target the right calls: inbound, outbound, and queue calls, separately.
  • Initial delay before the first beep, set in seconds.
  • Play once, or repeat at a set interval for the whole call.
  • Upload your own .wav beep tone.

Module 02 · Agent Greetings

A flawless intro on
every single call.

The moment an agent answers a queue call, a pre-recorded greeting plays in their own voice. Whether it's a warm welcome or a required notice, it comes out perfectly every time.

  • Plays automatically the instant an agent answers a queue call.
  • The agent's own voice: personal, never robotic.
  • Per-queue, per-agent: different greetings for different queues.
  • Record from your phone, or upload an audio file.
  • Activate, play, or remove greetings in a click.

Module 03 · Barge Messages

Important announcements,
mid-call, on demand.

Need to deliver a disclaimer, a consent notice, or any standardized message during a live call? Click once and Audio Announcer joins the call, plays your message so everyone hears it, then exits on its own.

  • One-click injection into any live call.
  • A reusable prompt library, with versions and descriptions.
  • Upload a .wav or type text for text-to-speech.
  • A wide choice of text-to-speech engines: control voice, language, and speed.
  • Plays to all parties, then exits the call automatically.

Questions, answered

The fine print, up front.

Will it work with my 3CX?
Audio Announcer works with 3CX Professional and Enterprise editions, whether your 3CX is on Windows or Linux, hosted or on-prem. It runs on its own server and connects to 3CX through the VoIPTools Relay. Reach out and we'll confirm compatibility with your exact version.
Do agents have to install anything?
No. Audio Announcer is browser-based, so there's nothing to install on agent desktops. Everything is managed from a single web portal.
Can the recording beep help us meet legal requirements?
Yes. It's designed to help you comply with call-recording disclosure laws, and you control the delay and frequency. It isn't legal advice, so always confirm the specific rules for your jurisdiction and industry.
Can we use our own audio?
Absolutely. Upload your own .wav files, or generate audio from text using a wide choice of built-in text-to-speech engines.
Can we control who has access?
Yes. Role-based permissions let you decide which roles can view and manage each page, and you can assign or reset them in seconds.
Can we make it match our brand?
Yes. Custom Branding lets you add your own logo and adjust the portal's colors to match your brand.
