Hi:
We are trying to collect a speech database for our application.
In our experience laptop soundcards are notoriously bad with
introducing strange noises into recordings, 60 Hz or otherwise. And I
read on auditory list sometime back that USB external soundcards are no
good either. So, we are planning to use a Dell Desktop and do
recordings in a sound booth.
However, I wanted to find out if anyone has any experience with the
kind of equipment that works best for it? Should we be careful about
what kind of a soundcard do we use? Does anyone know which soundcards
work best? Is there anything else that we should be careful about?
Any kind of help will be greatly appreciated!
Thanks
