Cardioid Condenser

Transcribe audio in spite of background noise The task only professional transcribers are capable of

Quality of the voice recordings for documenting it into a transcript is of paramount importance, it can be daunting task for a transcriber to transcribe audio which has background noise or disturbances. The skills of an expert transcriber will however prevail, and in spite of the background noise, the transcripts will have the accuracy, because a professional transcriber has processed it, but the extra time taken by the transcriber will escalate the cost of the transcripts.

Therefore quality audio recordings, free from background noise or disturbances can make the task of the transcriber easier and the costs of transcriptions affordable. The recording of the audio, whether it is done outdoor or indoor has to be of the highest quality, and for that to happen the recording equipment plays an important part in generating quality audio recordings.

There are multiple brands of microphones used for recording audio such as, Audio-Technica, Sampson, Shure, and Rode, however what matters most is the ability of the microphones to reproduce the voice accurately without distortions. The microphones with a unidirectional cardioid pattern should be the ideal choice for recording interviews.

The microphone with heart shaped cardioid pattern captures sound which is in the front of the microphone and rejects the sound that is behind it, thus limiting room reverberation to the barest minimum when audio is recorded. The microphones with a condenser require phantom power, in a laymen’s term they need an external power source and the flat frequency plus the cardioid pickup pattern these microphones are built with, capture voice without distortions.

The unidirectional condenser microphone is a preferred choice of many television reporters, voiceover artist or radio station disk jockeys. An investment into a quality microphone for recording interviews will provide quality audio recordings, making the task of the transcriber that much easier in providing a clean and accurate transcript.

From links choose the item

it will be the 2020, or the perception 100. bottom line. they other mics are kinda shitty and will fall apart or distort your voice down the road. usb mics are shitty as hell. go buy an interface and an sm58. start out on this. then move up once you realize what this is all about. you can't just buy a mic and hook it up to your computer and think you are recording. its all about the line of travel and audio to digital converters. dont ever record to a built in sound card. trust me. save some money, or get another mc to go in on it with you and do it right, so you don't waste your money.

also dont let them sell you on better cords, they are all the same.
