Setting up a microphone

How to connect a new microphone to get started with your recordings

To ensure accurate transcription, mAIscribe needs to hear you clearly. One of the most important things to check is if your Audio input is configured correctly.

From many tests and testimonials, we highly encourage clinicians to invest in a high-quality microphone.

We advise using a noise-cancelling microphone to minimise background noise and handle multiple people speaking and with a minimum 2 meters reach. Our choice is Jabra Speak2 55 UC.
