the ViaVoice menu click User Options > ViaVoice Options. At the
User tab, click the Add/Modify button.)
U Are you using the microphone you used to record your voice-model
data? If you have changed microphones since you created your voice
model, your voice model does not reflect the audio characteristics of
your new microphone. Create a voice model using your new
microphone, then use that voice model when practicing the dictation.
(Select the voice model you want to use from the ViaVoice menu by
clicking User Options > ViaVoice Options. At the User tab, make
sure the voice model you created with your new microphone is
shown in the Voice Model field.)
U If a word can be pronounced more than one way—like 'thuh' and
'thee' for the word the—try both pronunciations.
U Make sure you say multiple-word commands as if they were one long
word. Say New Line as a single word, not as New (short pause) Line.
U Are you actually saying all words correctly? For example, do not
misread this as the. Do not skip any words. You can always check
whether you are speaking clearly and correctly by selecting a word
and saying "Play this".
U If you are speaking in a location with a lot of unusual background
noise, wait until the noise subsides before dictating.
U Do not eat, drink or smoke while trying to dictate. If you have a bad
cold or sore throat, consider practicing after your voice has returned
to normal.
