Digital and Analogue Recording Guidelines


When recording, there are ways of increasing the opportunity to create clear audio quality.
  • Have the microphone in close proximity to the person speaking
  • Use external microphones for recording
  • Avoid background noise, for example, secondary conversations and open windows.
  • Provide a list of speakers for transcribers
  • Provide a list of any technical jargon used

    •  

    These are simple guidelines but can make all the difference to a recording and allow a more rapid turnaround of work.

    Analogue tapes can be sent to us and we will return the original recording, the transcript and email you a digitized recording that you can listen to on your computer.

    The advantages of a digital recording are that you can do multiple back up copies.

    Digital copies can be listened to on your computer using Windows Media Player, Real Player and other standard software.
