Record Your Audio

Read the below instructions or watch this video: https://wsu.mn/34DTPsu

Tips for Recording

  • Find a room that is quiet and won’t have background noise. If possible, avoid areas with appliances (like fridges) that may be humming 
  • Enunciate your words 
  • Speak slower rather than faster 
  • Leave space between your answers

Here’s great example of an audio recording from Molly Toraason.

Instructions

  1. On your smartphone, open the Voice Memos app (iPhone) or Voice Recorder App (Android). You should see a big red button at the bottom of the screening. This is your recording button. 
  2. Place the phone on a flat surface (do NOT hold it – this can create unnecessary noise). 
  3. Take a piece of printer paper (8.5 x 11 inches) and measure the distance between your chin and the bottom of your phone (where the microphone is). 
  4. Once you have measured, do NOT move your head. You will be recording from this position. 
  5. Touch the red button to start recording yourself answering the below questions. 
  6. Touch the red button to stop the recording when you are finished and tap “Save” if asked. 
  7. Tap the three dots that are aligned either vertically or horizontally to open a menu window. 
  8. Tap Share and choose email.
