Bayscribe - Is there a volume booster? - MT


Posted: Jul 10, 2011

I always seem to have issues with being able to get the audio up to a comfortable volume on the Bayscribe platform.  I don't think it's an issue with my computer, as my other platforms have volumes that are just fine. Is there a volume booster somewhere on Bayscribe besides the obvious up and down button on the audio player that I'm overlooking?  I have all the settings up to maximum on my computer as well as having the audio player volume all the way up to no avail. TIA to anyone with any suggestions :)

I don't know if this will help you, but it sure helped me. I bought this gizmo called a Boosteroo at my local Radio Shack. You plug the Boosteroo into your speaker and your headphones into the Boosteroo. It will solve all of your problems with volume. Like you, I am on BS, and this was a good solution for me. Good luck. Boosteroo is not very expensive, BTW.

Thank you, Nick, Im going to give it a try - BayScriber

I can tell most of these dictators would be really good...if I could just actually HEAR them, LOL! Installation of the Boosteroo is easy, too? I'm technically naive, and that's putting it politely, LOL!

thanks, I have the same problem - anon

Sound Booster Question
Mar 13, 2012

I just bought a Boostaroo sound booster last weekend.  I like that I can plug up to 3 headphones in it (as I use a couple different ones for different types of dictation).  What is troubling me, is the first time I used it, I had my computer control volume settings where I wanted them (sound, wave, etc.) and any adjusting I did in my platform volume control was separate (so any added volume was additional), or at least that is the way it appeared it was working. Yesterday when ...

Can You Increase Volume In Emdat
Jul 26, 2011

My Emdat voice quality has been very low recently.  Unfortunately my ear phone cord broke and I ordered new earphones but it's just a whisper.  I've increased the volume button on Emdat, but wondered if there is a way to increase the volume otherwise.  I've done everything on my computer to make the volume loud but it doesn't work. I just ordered a new 2nd set of earphones along with a volume increase thing from Amazon and was so excited to get it in today.&nb ...


Increase Dictation Volume?
Jul 24, 2012

Is there anything at all I can do to increase the dictation sound volume when I get these whisperers or people using cell phones, etc, and I can hardly hear them?  I guess some of them are just sitting too far away from the dictating equipment, but they are never going to change.  They are always going to be barely audible. Is there anything I can do or buy to amplify the sound with these dictators?  I already have my computer and speakers set on the highest volume.  I' ...

Computer Volume Control Boost. This May Help A Little

I have a Boostaroo and it muffles the audio when I turn it up on my headset.  Some of these dictators go back and forth in volume and I have caught several mistakes I made on deciding what I hear.   This simple Windows function might help some of you, I noticed a small difference right away. I am also looking into an app to download as I don't have room for a set of speakers up on my work area to plug headset into.   I am going to research more on this with  l ...
