Best Practices for Quality Audio in a Recording

Recommendations for creating recordings with the best quality audio: 

• Keep the background noise to a minimum for both the speaker and  participants. 
  
  
• Speak normally, at a normal pace and enunciate clearly.
  
  
• Stay close to the mic when speaking. If your meeting involves many people sitting together, place the mic near the participants who are talking. If  needed, repeat the participant's questions or statements into the mic to be sure all content is recorded.
  
• When possible, choose an external microphone over a built-in one for better sound quality.
