Question 4: What is sample rate?

Answer:

The number of times per-second the ADC takes a "snapshot" of the voltage of an analog audio signal.Higher sample rates will produce smooth, clear audio. Lower sample rates will lose fidelity in treble frequencies.Question 5: Regardless of whether you are using a dynamic or condenser microphone, the microphone that you use will have a defined pick-up pattern. What are the two most commonly used pickup patterns for digital court reporting?

Answer:

Cardioid (or unidirectional) and omnidirectional.Question 6: What is the formula to estimate how many pages of transcript a recording will produce?

Answer:

Total length of audio in minutes, not counting recesses and other off-the-record time, divided by 60, then multiplied by 40.Question 7: What should you recite during a line check while checking your first microphone, to help ensure you can properly identify what proceeding the audio file is for?

The date Question 8: How many transcript pages if Your annotations show a start time at 01:38:12 and an end time at 05:35:06, a total of 3 hours, 23 minutes and 30 seconds. (Ignore the seconds!)

Answer:

135 transcript pages- That adds to 203 minutes, which divided by 60 gives 3.38 hours, which times 40 equals about 135 transcript pages. If any off the record discussions or recesses were taken, deduct it from the total minutes.
