If you wish to use the USB TableMike as a high quality voice recorder and instead of a digital one to
automatically transcribe your recordings, download a free recording application such as the Audacity
(http://audacity.sourceforge.net) and save your recording in a standard sound format such as: wav, MP3 or wma
providing at least 16 bits, 11,025 Hz, mono --22,000 Hz will be better with NaturallySpeaking® 11. You may also
want to download and try for 30 days our Transcription Aid to transcribe and edit those recordings with many
more useful options than NaturallySpeaking® from: http://transcriptionaid.net/download/index.php
Download and install SpeechControl for TableMike (SCT) an application to start or restart (if it is locked up)
NaturallySpeaking®, as well as switching on the microphone from the off state (red icon), all by voice for a 15 day
trail from: www.tablemike.com/speechcontrol
