Add a session from new recording

Add a session from a new recording

You can record a speaker using SayMore features and allow SayMore to add a session to the current project as part of the recording process.

A microphone is required for this task.

1. Click the Sessions tab.

2. Do one of the following:

   • On the Session menu, click New From Recording.

   • Click the New from Recording button which is near the bottom of the Sessions (left) pane.

The Session Recorder dialog box appears.

3. Do the following:

   • Click Record, and speak into the microphone.

   • When you are done, click Stop.

   • To listen to the recording, click Playback Recording.

   • If you are satisfied with the recording, click OK. Otherwise, click Cancel. Then, open this dialog box again, and make a new recording.

   A new session is added, and the recording is automatically added to it.

4. Enter session metadata.

5. As necessary, add files to the new session.

   • Enter or edit file metadata.

Note

• If you click Stop and then click Record again, the new recording is added to the previous one. That is, it does not record over the previous one.

• The Session Recorder has a level indicator. It shows green, yellow and red recording levels, and a line that shows recent peaks. Make sure to not have too many peaks in yellow or red areas.

• Properties of the recording appear at the bottom and are added as metadata. You can see them in the Properties tab with that <name>.wav file is selected.
