Perfect Transcription Services
How do I start my own Transcription services?
Whatever the event you need to record, be it a conference, meeting, focus group or series of interviews, it’s important to maximize your chances of making a clear recording which can then be accurately transcribed thereby strengthening the transcription services. Many recordings can be ruined by taking unnecessary shortcuts at the recording stage. This article examines the necessary equipment needed for a transcription service.
So, are microphones essential for recording? The simple answer is ‘yes’ but that would make for a very short article! To ensure that you capture a clearly audible recording, particularly for events such as interviews or conferences, it’s essential to use a microphone. If you need your transcription service to be perfect, the only way to ensure a clearly audible recording is to use equipment that’s fit for the purpose. Why waste time, effort and money arranging an event, only to blow it at the recording stage? Microphones won’t cost much as compared to your other equipments in the transcription services.
Foot pedal is another important piece of hardware for digital transcribing and you can order it online. It will cost about $80. If you seriously want to do a transcription service you need to have an extra pedal as back up because if it breaks you don’t want to be out of line while you wait for the next one to reach you through mail. The makers of Express Scribe also sell this piece of hardware. If you have an old computer without USB ports, you need to get a pedal that connects with a serial connector to make your transcription services accurate.
Get the best available headphones affordable in an order to deliver better transcription services. Believe you me, it will repay back in a better way. If you are willing to use a notebook to play these audio files you need to have an excellent set of external speakers to enhance the audio volume and quality – plug your headphones to the speakers.
