Windows Speech Recognition Macros requires the following: * A computer running a genuine copy of Windows Vista (x86 or x64) * Currently, only English-language editions of Windows are supported. * A microphone.
We recommend the following in addition: * A minimum of 1GB of memory is recommended. * Completing the Microphone Wizard and the Windows Speech Recognition tutorial before using WSR Macros. This will ensure that your microphone is properly set-up and help the speech engine become adapted to your voice. * Speakers or headset for sound and voice output. * Speech recognition works best when the computer can hear you clearly. We recommend high-quality microphones for best results.
The use of Bluetooth microphones is not recommended since they do not support high enough quality audio for speech recognition to work optimally.
