Title: voice recognition
Post by: daveleb55 on October 10, 2006, 07:42:09 pm

I got myself a USB headset, the ANDREA ANC-700 with the Buddy USB adapter, and it works GREAT! I only had to run through the setup once and everything was working. I tried it without the headset (using the laptop built in mic) and it just heard garbage. I am quite pleased with the voice recog ability, makes it much easier to chat with Hal. I think I paid around $70 or $80 for it, but it's well worth the investment.

daveleb55,
  I'm using Dragon with an Sennheiser headset, I was tempted to get the USB model but I have an audio filter setup I use with the mic, it increases the S/N ratio quite a bit and improves accuracy.
  I'd agree that speach reconition makes chatting with Hal more enjoyable.
