How do I create and use a voice room?
What this guide covers
Full voice room (Live) flow: create/schedule, set who can join, upgrade with passes, then mic and room management. Pass comparison: What are voice room passes and user benefits?.
Requirements and before you start
- DeBox is installed and can open.
- Common create entries: Messages + → Start Live; Home center + → Voice room; Group chat + → Voice room.
- Create-page Current benefits follow your account: non-members often 1 hour / 100 people; members often 2 hours / 500 people.
- For longer time, more capacity, screen share, recording, or always-on rooms, use VIP / time / monthly passes (verify amount and network when paying).
When paid join or pass purchase involves assets, verify amount and network. Never share seed phrases, private keys, or PINs.

2. Topic and broadcast settings
- Enter a topic (often up to ~50 characters).

Common questions
Why can’t I record?
Usually need a recordable pass (Lite / Pro / time pass). Monthly pass rooms cannot record. Per-room recording start limits may apply.
How long / how many people by default?
See create-page Current benefits. Non-members often 1 h / 100; members often 2 h / 500; then stack passes.
How do I start a scheduled Live?
Upcoming Lives → Start now.
How do I end the room?
Privileged users close the voice room and confirm; handle recording prompts if any.
Why join fails?
Wrong password, insufficient tokens/assets, unpaid gate, full/closed room, network issues.
VIP pass vs membership?
Membership raises default create tier; passes upgrade a session or always-on month. See What are voice room passes and user benefits?.
