|
1. Connect an Apple PlainTalk or USB microphone to your Mac, unless you have a built-in microphone. Position any external microphone within three feet of the speaking source (you).
2. Make sure you select the proper microphone in the Monitors and Sound control panel.
3. Open the Speech control panel and turn on Speakable Items. Follow the directions for choosing your settings.
4. Set the button for how your Mac listens for commands: the default is pressing the Esc key and speaking a command. You can choose another "listening key," or have your Mac listen all the time. (See Warnings).
5. Set how the computer gives you feedback. You can have the "feedback window" write out your command, have your Mac make a sound when a command is recognized, or (by default) speak a response to your command. |
