Record sound directly in the field with your NaturaList application. As it happens with images, the sound will be linked to an observation and its details.

As a call and/or song may be unpredictable, there is a quick access to camera and microphone that allows you to record sound before entering place and species. It is still possible to do it the standard way as you enter the observation.

Sound can be recorded at two different stages:
· as additional information after entering the observation (see wiki section Mobile interface > Enter independent observations > Plus > Media for details.
· before entering the observation (see below for details).

Except for some protocols (requires special rights to access them), it is currently not possible to do playback from NaturaList.

To record sound before entering your observation:

1. Open NaturaList as usual.
2. Use quick key Sound icon.png to open the sound recorder.


Sound recorder quick access.png

Media. Quick access.

1. Record a sound: Click to open the sound recorder.
2. Add a photo: Click to open the camera.

It is not possible to upload a file from your document: please add it to an observation with the detail panel "Media".


3. Once in the recording module, press Yellow micro.png to start recording.
4. Stop the record at any point with the stop button Stop icon.png.
5. Adjust the part of the recording to keep with Adjust icon.png, minimum size for recording is 3 seconds. It is only possible to listen the recording at this stage.

Sound record step 2.png

Sound recorder. Step 2: Recording in progress.

Sound record step 3.png

Sound recorder. Step 3: Recording adjustement.

1. Close: Close icon.png Click to exit the sound recorder tool. No sound is recorded, return to home screen.
2. Start: Yellow micro.png Click to start recording. A live spectrogram is shown while the recorder is working.
3. Stop: Stop icon.png Click to stop recording. The minimum time of recording is 3 seconds.
4. Time: Indicates the time of the recording in progress.
5. Live spectrogram: Spectrogram being recorded in real time.
6. Play: Play icon.png Click to hear the recording.
7. Adjust: Adjust icon.png Resize the recording (minimum size required is 3 seconds).
8. Full spectrogram: Spectrogram of the full recording.
9. Move: Navigate through the recording to be at the right time where the interesting part is.



6. Validate. Confirms the sound selection and open the map to enter the data linked to that sound. Do not forget now step 7 to enter your observation as usual (Place, Species, Details...), otherwise your sound is not saved and you will loose it!

Validate.



7. Enter the observation as usual (you are taken directly to the "Place" screen described in wiki section Mobile interface > Submitting records > Enter independent observations > Place.

NOTE
The sound recording always needs to be associated to an observation. Otherwise, the recording will be automatically deleted.
