Guidelines & Quick recording tips

Find a quiet room, switch off fans, TV, or AC before recording

Keep the mic about 6 inches from your mouth, not too close, not too far

Use a laptop or desktop, mobile recordings are often rejected

Earphones or an external mic improve quality significantly

Avoid mixing in English words, the entire sample must be in your chosen language
