Microphones
with
the expensive mics I have used Homeseer, Homevoice and Microsoft's freebie,
I
have used the dragon engine but not with the pressure mic although I wasn't
impressed (I may not have given it a chance, I was more than a bit peeved
by
then if my memory serves me) the only VR app I was impressed with was HAL
and
once again it was NOT reliably enough IMO to offer 24/7 VR for my
family
and thus found to be - not suitable. I may be asking too much from this
generation of software, but saying that I am really impressed with the VR
on
my Nino WinCE PDA. so who knows??
The
volume is more of a problem, the clarity when recorded using sound recorder
is
superb so much clearly than headset or free standing cheepo PC multimedia
mics.
What voice recognition program are you using?
Even with a headset I had terrible results with Homeseer & the
Microsoft
recognition engine but when I switched to a pre-trained Dragon engine
things
got much better. What kind of audio do you get out of the mics (volume,
quality etc)?

are you talking the 100 quid a throw pressure
zone or something like that microphones, if you are I have one along with
the rolls compressor limiter gate, I do not find that voice recognition is
useful for anything other than 'playing' with, amusing friends or the kids
when certain untraind words set light on and off - like oranges.
Those of you who have played with voice
control, what microphones have you used, has anyone tried the posh
ceiling mounted ones and the limiter/gate unit?
