Research

Record Interviews
Enhance qualitative research using digital recording software for interviews. SoniClear runs on your Windows laptop or desktop computer, replacing conventional cassette recording.

SoniClear SalesVoice eliminates problems resulting from poor-quality interview recordings, and incomplete or incorrect handwritten notes. The valuable knowledge gathered in the interview process is stored in digital form for transcription and permanent storage. SalesVoice can also be used to conveniently dictate verbal notes for later automated transcription using voice recognition software.

SoniClear products, such as Gov Recorder and Enterprise add note-taking capability that makes it easy to access any part of the recording for review of the original audio. SoniClear Gov and SoniClear Enterprise products also support an optional USB foot pedal for transcription work.

All SoniClear products incorporate VoiceBoost signal processing for improved intelligibility, resulting in faster and more accurate transcription.

Section 504 and Section 508 Compliance

SoniClear can help implement compliance with Section 504 and Section 508 of the Rehabilitation Act. The use of audio recording provides a number of benefits for meeting the provisions of the federal requirements. Gov Archiver and Gov Webcaster produce archive recordings that are Section 508 compliant, providing keyboard equivalents and screen reader support.

Accessibility to Meetings, Lectures, and Presentations
SoniClear products can be used to record verbal presentations and discussions for transcription. The combination of an audio recording produced with SoniClear and a manually transcribed text file meet the Section 508 requirements for access for visual and hearing impaired students, employees, and the public.

SoniClear can also be used as a tool for students with visual impairment and other disabilities who need assistance with taking notes during lectures. The one-click note taking capability provides for easy review of lecture information from the digital recording. The same level of access to lecture information would only be possible through more costly means, such as a personal assistant, or conventional recording and transcription of the lecture.
