Audio Setup

 
 
  1. Audio Notetaker will now record into the Opus format, see Opus Encoding for more information.
  2. You can set the recording level manually through your Mac's System Preferences.
  3. Some digital recorders (e.g. the Olympus DM-670 and DM-450) have a menu setting that allows you to use them as a microphone when connected to your PC. You will need to find the "USB" menu setting and select "USB Composite Device". On the DM670 - Press the menu button, scroll down and select Device Menu → USB Settings → USB Class → Composite.
  4. If your recording device also has playback ability (speaker or headphone jack) then you may need to change your default playback device when you listen back to your recordings.
  5. You can control the amount of disk space used per hour of audio in App Menu → System → Settings → Recording Quality.
  6. Audio Notetaker will disable Mac OS Ambient Noise Reduction by default while recording, as it may interfere with Sonocent Clear Lecture™ processing. This setting is compatible with Yosemite and later. If your recordings have a watery sound, check that the setting isn't unticked in App Menu → System → Settings → Audio.
