How to Record High-Quality Audio with Waveform Feedback

Steps

1. Open SpeakSense and start recording.
2. Watch the live waveform confirm your audio is coming through.
3. Position the phone so your voice registers clearly.
4. Stop when done — the recording is kept with its transcript.
5. Review both together.

Why it works this way

Transcription is only as good as the audio it hears, and the worst outcome is discovering afterward that a recording was too quiet or clipped. Live waveform feedback shows your levels in the moment, so you can fix mic placement before it matters. High-quality capture plus that visual confirmation is what gives the on-device models a clean signal to work from.

Tips & edge cases

• Watch the waveform — flat lines mean your voice isn’t registering.
• Reduce background noise for cleaner audio and better transcripts.
• Audio is stored with the transcript for later review.

FAQ

Can I see that I’m being recorded clearly? Yes. A live waveform shows your audio levels as you speak.

Why does recording quality matter? Clearer audio produces a more accurate transcript, so good capture is the foundation.

Is the audio kept? Yes. Recordings are stored locally alongside their transcripts.
