10 Steps For A Clearer Digital Interview

Presented By TranscriptionStar

How To Record A Crystal Clear Digital Interview ?

• Recording an interview will quickly flip in to a horrific expertise once not done right.

• So if you record digital recordings you need to keep a few things in mind.

STEP 1

• Remember that the further a mike is placed away from the speaker the more atmospheric noise.

STEP 2

• Make your interview recite a few lines and check the recording level meter.

• Adjust settings according to your recording.

STEP 3

• If you are using a single microphone, record in left right mono settings.

• When recording with two microphones record in the two channel stereo format.

STEP 4

• Is it a field recording? Then make sure that you are recording in an uncompressed format.

STEP 5

• Compressed formats such as MPEG can be used for studio recordings.

• Though it offers more recording time be prepared for a slight loss of audio quality.

STEP 6

• Invest in a file size calculator to calculate the storage space of your interviews.

• It can be of enormous help when you copy your digital interviews in to the server.

STEP 7

• Try to set record levels manually through a limiter.

• An automatic one may be functional but doesn’t produce spectacular results.

STEP 8

• Set your input level to between -6 and -12 db.

STEP 9

• Use a Lo-Cut filter to remove background noise such as air conditioner hiss.

• Most digital recorders provide you this option.

STEP 10

• Finally choose a microphone that is compatible with your recorder, you don’t want to make the uncomfortable choice of dumping either one !
