Recording

Steps to Follow from the Home Screen

Note: This procedure enables you to record only the project that is named in the blue recording area. If a different project is shown, or no project is shown, you need to record from the Project Management screen as explained below.

  1. On the home screen, tap in the blue recording area.

  2. If the Security warning shows, tap in the box before the words ‘Do not remind again.’ so that there is a checkmark in the box. Then tap the word ‘ALLOW.’ (This is the only time you will need to check and allow.)

  3. Check the information on the top gray bar:

  • Target Language

  • Project Type

  • Book

  • Chapter

  • Verse or Chunk

  1. Use the + and – signs to correct the chapter or verse/chunk number.

  2. Tap the Microphone icon. (See more detailed instructions for recording below.)

  3. Record the verse or chunk.

  4. Tap the Pause icon (2 vertical lines) when done saying the verse/chunk (the Pause icon replaces the Play icon).

  5. Tap the Checkmark icon in the bottom blue bar.

  6. Edit and rate the recording. See Rate the Target Language Recording.

  7. Save the recording. The recording window closes and the home screen shows.

  8. Repeat steps 1 to 9 for all verses in the book. Be sure to change the chapter and/or verse number (step 3) each time.

Steps to Follow from the Project Management Screen

  2. Tap on the project bar that displays the language and book.

  3. Tap on the chapter bar that needs to be recorded.

  4. On the verse bar that needs to be recorded, tap on the Microphone icon.

HINT: This is an easy way to keep track of which verses/chunks have recordings already so that you don’t unnecessarily record the same item over and over. It is also an easy way to navigate to the specific item you want to record.

  • Target Language

  • Project Type

  • Book

  • Chapter

  • Verse or Chunk

  1. Use the + and – signs to correct the chapter or verse/chunk number.

  2. Tap the Microphone icon. (See more detailed instructions for recording below.)

  3. Record the verse or chunk.

  4. Tap the Pause icon when done saying the verse/chunk.

  5. Tap the Checkmark icon in the bottom blue bar.

  6. Edit and rate the recording. See Rate the Target Language Recording.

  7. Save the recording. The recording window closes and the Project Management window for the verses in that chapter appears.

  8. On the next verse bar that needs to be recorded, tap on the Microphone icon.

  9. Repeat steps 5 to 13 for all verses in the book.

Detailed instructions for the Recording Window

In the Recording window you can see the Target Language, the Source, the Book, the Chapter and the Verse in the gray bar at the top of the screen.

  1. If source audio is available, tap the Play button in the gray bar at the bottom of the screen to listen to the source language for that particular verse/chunk. The green dot will move along the line. The numbers on the left of the line count down and the numbers on the right count up the length of the audio recording.

  2. Listen to the verse or chunk.

  2. Speak clearly and loudly.

  • It is recommended that you use a separate microphone or a headset with a microphone, not just the microphone that is built into the tablet.

  • As you begin to speak you will see a wavy line appear on the screen which is a result of the sound of your voice.

  • You can also tap Pause to temporarily Pause recording.
