CDSVAN Recording Software

Hard-disk recording within the CDSVAN system offers you a convenient and easy to use solution for hard-disk recording of all delegates and languages.

Individual Recording
Individual Recording provides automatic and individual digital recordings of each delegate into individual files on the hard drive.

The individual recording starts automatically when a microphone is switched on. The individual recording is stored within its own file, including the delegate’s name, time stamp and additional information about the conference and speech if applicable.

The individual hard-disk recorder only records the open microphone of the delegate currently speaking. CDSVAN is designed to record up to 7 active microphones simultaneously and store the individual file information into their respective files.

Multi-Channel Recording
The new CDSVAN Hard-Disk Recording Module (RecControl) is designed to digitally record up to 10 channels. The number of channels can be set, enabling RecControl to be easily adapted to the requirements of changing conference applications. This allows the day's conference (delegates and interpreters) to be easily recorded.

A recording can be divided into sequences, so-called "takes", enabling several writers to work on a contribution.

Each individual recording track can be labeled with the respective sound source (preferably designation of the language). This enables contributions in each available language to be quickly found and used after the conference.

RecControl allows for archiving the interpreted language with the original by switching RecControl to stereo mode. A stereo channel will automatically be recorded for the original and the other channel for the respective interpreted language – with up to ten channels simultaneously.

Different conferences are automatically stored in specified folders, which means you never lose sight of the overview even when there are huge amounts of data. The graphical user interface is optimized by trimming it down to the most important functions, to enable the best possible overview for the user.

In developing RecControl, great value has above all placed on recording reliability: two additional redundant storage locations are available; system-internal, for instance on a 2nd hard disk and for further processing (for instance copies) and archiving in the in-house network. And this is all fully automatic – you simply define the target location.

The recording time is naturally determined by the amount of available memory capacity. Today standard hard disks enable you to store or archive your conferences for up to a year or more, depending on channel allocation – no comparison to recordings on a standard memory card. The sound quality of the recordings is primarily determined by the sound source. RecControl is digital integrated into the CDSVAN, which means that superfluous analogue to digital conversions are completely done away with and recordings can also be made in studio quality. The recordings of your conference can either be made in WAVE or in MP3 format on a digital medium.
