VoiceVector v0.3.2
Recording feel, especially with external audio interfaces.
- Instant HUD. The recording overlay appears the moment the hotkey fires;
the microphone opens in the background. USB interfaces (Focusrite Scarlett
and friends) take about half a second to open, and that used to block the
whole UI. - Warm microphone (Settings → General). Two independent options: keep the
microphone open for 15 seconds after a recording (on by default — back-to-back
takes start instantly) and always keep it open while VoiceVector runs (off by
default). Either shows the OS mic-in-use indicator while the mic is open. - Level meter that works at any gain. Conservatively gained interfaces
produce speech around −40 dBFS — perfectly transcribable, but the old linear
meter barely moved. The meter is now a fixed, quantized scale (−60 dBFS
silence → −15 dBFS full, three steps), and handles Float32/Int16/Int32 and
multichannel input, taking the loudest channel. - Voice detection relative to the noise floor so silence-gap streaming
(transcribe-while-you-pause) works on quiet inputs too. VoiceVector --probe-audio [seconds](macOS) prints the default input's
format, per-channel levels, and device open latency, for diagnosing this
class of problem.
