Randomize Music

The Randomize Music feature randomly orders the music when a user is calling in and is put on hold. 
It can be enabled by selecting the Randomize music checkbox.

Time Between Messages

The Time Between Messages feature sets the time between the end of one message and the start of the next one. Within each of these breaks, the music will resume. 

This can be adjusted with a slider in increments of 5 seconds. The default value for the time between messages is 30 seconds, but this value can range from 15 to 120 seconds.
