[MV] Transcription

[Chuck Rogers]

I forgot to mention about transcription.

When you transcribe from a recording, the sound of your voice will be  
affected by the individual characteristics of both the recorder and  
the media to which it is recorded. This will impact the amount of  
accuracy you can get. Using digital media mitigates the media problem  
to a great extent (for instance, we will not provide technical  
support if you are attempting to transcribe from a tape), but for  
best results, you should create an independent profile for your  
recording device.

Some devices, such as the Olympus DS-4000 make creating a unique  
profile pretty easy. With others, such as the DS-2, one pretty much  
just creates a new profile using their regular mic, and then uses  
Correction to adjust the profile as you go.
