Professional Studio Recording
In Texas it takes us five minutes to walk to our friendly
neighborhood recording studio. We also have in-house sound recording capability. We can always provide
a male and female voice in Portuguese.
Networking
Online
samples in English and Portuguese give an idea of our capabilities. For
quick response, cost savings and technical competence in transferring
and handling sound files--much larger than text--we are hard to beat.
For talent beyond what we have to offer, we will refer you to other
members of our trusted network of professional linguists.
Audio Transcription
A
federal court interpreter with standard cassette transcription
equipment is good. We also go one better by adding dictation software
for audio file transcription with foot pedal controls. The sound
editing software we use for recording handles enhancement (time
stretch, volume and clipping adjustment and filters) to extract meaning
from imperfect recordings on CD or computer files.
