Running the Audio Setup Wizard

The Audio Setup Wizard automatically adjusts the volume level of your microphone to its optimal setting, providing the system with the best possible audio input, which in turn improves your speech recognition results.

The Audio Setup Wizard is a two-step process:

NOTE: If necessary, you can run the Audio Setup Wizard by clicking Speech > Audio Setup on the menu bar once you have logged into the client.

To use the Audio Setup Wizard (at your first login):

1.  Log into the PowerScribe 360 | Reporting client application. In a few seconds, the Audio Setup Wizard opens.

2.  If prompted to do so, select the sound system you want to use and click Next.

NOTE: If your computer has only one audio source, you won't see the Choose a sound system dialog box.

 

3.  Review the text in this dialog box, adjust your microphone position if necessary, and click Next.

 

4.  Click the Start Volume Check button and begin dictating the text shown in the box ("While you are reading this, the computer …"). The wizard automatically moves to the next dialog box when the system has determined a good volume level for you.

 

5.  Click the Start Quality Check button and begin dictating the text shown in the box ("For Dragon to recognize your voice accurately,…").

 

6.  When the audio quality check shows Check Microphone Passed (in the black text box), click Finish to complete the wizard.
