Testing your microphone volume
If you are opening an activity that allows recording but does not require detailed speech analysis, you may see a screen that asks you to check your microphone volume.
To test your microphone volume:
- Speak into your microphone and watch the volume bar on the screen.
- If the bar consistently stays mostly in the green section, your microphone setting is fine for recording with this activity.
- If the bar regularly goes into the red sections, indicating that your recording is too loud or too soft, you may need to adjust the recording volume set by your operating system.
- When you are satisfied with your recording volume, click PROCEED to start the activity.
