How to turn on/off Zoom audio notifications

Nowadays people are working from home due to the threat of COVID-19 infection. Apps like Zoom have contributed a lot to this, which provide facilities like online meetings or school classes for children. Zoom has a very popular audio notification that tells you whether a participant has joined or left the meeting. This feature proves to be useful when you are waiting for someone to join. But it can be very irritating when you are participating in a meeting of a very large group and you keep getting notification sound due to people coming and going again and again. The sound of this notification is like a doorbell, which gives the feeling of someone ringing the doorbell in a real environment. But you can also mute it. There are also some features in it that you can either turn on notifications for everyone or only for the host and co-host. There is also an option to ask the user to record the voice to use this sound as a notification when someone joins through the phone.
