Re: Meetings - Recording
Anyone who has tried to use voice recognition software will be all too painfully aware of the need to train it to recognise the individual's speech oddities. It can take for ever to develop accuracy. And that is when you have good sound quality of a mike ideally positioned to the speakers mouth. Background noise is a killer.
Given the above, I really doubt that any file recorded by a PC, tape recorder, or some other player would be of good enough quality, unless the individuals were miked up. Even then the background noise from other partitipants will interfere. If there is only one file for many users, the voice software is going to have great difficulty making sense of it all. I fear you will end up with garbage.
I suspect the better discipline is to get these bods to nominate one of themselves to be tasked to take minutes. Either that or get a secretary good at shorthand to sit in.
