Using the large meeting settings - Amazon Chime

When you host a meeting with more than 25 invitees, Amazon Chime does the following when the meeting starts:

  • Mutes attendees when they join the meeting unless they join from an in-room conference system.

  • Turns off notifications when attendees join, leave, drop, or decline the meeting.

  • Turns off join and leave tones.

  • Displays a message in the meeting chat about these changes.

Hosts, moderators, and delegates can turn off large meeting experience settings. To do that, use the desktop or web app. The procedure varies depending on which client you use.

  1. Open the File menu, then choose Settings.

  2. Choose Meetings.

  3. Under Large meetings, clear the check box for Mute new attendees, turn off join and leave tones, and suppress roster notifications.

  4. Close the Settings pane to return to the Home window.
