Methods for Accurate Transcription and Translation Using Equipment

VoicePing is commonly used in web meetings and can perform high-precision transcription and translation even with PC microphones. However, during events, accuracy may deteriorate due to noise and howling effects. Therefore, we recommend using an audio interface.

The most common setup is as follows:

For translation broadcasting, by using a mixer to route audio to the PC, it is possible to perform high-precision transcription and translation by eliminating noise at the input stage. Additionally, you can insert an audio interface between the mixer and microphone to make various additional settings. You may also increase the number of microphones and PCs according to the number of speakers and languages. It is also possible to operate with separate mixers.

Below is a list of equipment that has been actually used in past events and confirmed to work: *Please note that we do not provide this equipment. *While VoicePing can perform noise canceling within the software, routing audio directly from microphones through mixers enables more accurate transcription.
