- To avoid having your test recordings rejected for quality reasons (and having to take the entire test again), please run this simple microphone test OUTSIDE of languagetesting.com:
- This microphone test can be run either
- at the listening stations (see sign 433a, brown headsets) or
- (PREFERABLY) in the main classroom (see sign 434, black headsets).
- After logging in, put the headphones on. No need to re-plug anything.
- From the desktop, open Audacity
. - In Audacity, Press the red RECORD button
. - Speak into the microphone.
- Check the results:
- You should see something like this:
- Press the green PLAY button
and listen to your recording. - Does the recording look AND sound OK?
- NO: let the LRC staff at the reception desk know the computer number and switch computers.
- Yes: Save the recording using menu: File / Export / [name = number of computer].mp3 to your “my documents” folder (if your test gets rejected, you have evidence that you ran the test and that the LRC headset hardware you used was o.k.).
- You should see something like this:
- This microphone test can be run either
- You also need to run the test WITHIN languagetesting.com (which just tests for volume, not for quality).
