Using Portable Recorder
Overview
SoniClear Portable Recorder is an integrated hardware and software system for recording
meetings and administrative hearings. SoniClear software runs on a Windows laptop
computer using an external audio interface.
No installation steps are required for the computer. Simply plug in the system and audio
sources, and start using it.
Using Samson GoMic USB Microphone
To use the Samson GoMic included with your Portable Recorder, connect the
microphone to a USB 2.0 port on the computer before starting SoniClear. DO NOT USE
A USB 3.0 PORT (USB 3.0 ports have a blue color jack).
In addition, the GoMic has a selection switch with three options:
-
When set to the bottom position, the microphone has an “omni-directional”
pickup pattern. This means that it will capture audio from all directions around the
microphone. This is a good setting for recording people sitting around a table.
-
The top switch setting is for a “cardioid” pickup pattern, with sound picking up
mostly from the front of the microphone (silver side). The back of the microphone
(black side) does not pick up much sound with this setting. This is suitable for
recording in a situation where the people speaking are further away from the
microphone in one direction (such as in front of an audience or at one end of a
conference room).
-
The third position in the middle of the switch will record with a reduced loudness.
This is intended for recording loud music and is not suitable for recording
meetings.
Be certain the switch has been set to the appropriate choice before recording a meeting.
