What are the benefits of using multitrack in Sonix?

Why use multitrack?

: Hi Sonix users. Today we’re going to talk about how to use multitrack in Sonix. I’ve got Bill here to explain some of the benefits. Hi Bill.

: Hey Adam great to be here.

: Bill can you tell us the benefits of uploading multitrack files versus singletrack in Sonix.

: Sure. Many of us capture each speaker separately by using different microphones to isolate each person’s voice. The result is a multi-track recording which has multiple benefits when using Sonix.

: Ok what are those benefits?

Automatic speaker labels

: The first is that you can name the speakers before you upload. This gives you near perfect automatic speaker labeling which saves a ton of time going through and naming speakers after the transcript has been returned to you.

: Nice. That’s a good one.

More accurate transcripts

: Yes. And secondly you’ll get more accurate transcripts because the voices on each track are isolated.

: That’s great too. Why wouldn’t everyone use multitrack

Always capture speakers on multiple tracks if you can

: While we always suggest capturing multiple speakers on different tracks. There really isn’t any good reason to have multiple speakers on one track.

: Great thanks for this bill. You are awesome.

: I know that.
