Do I need to setup a new profile if I want to use a different USB headset with Dragon?
I have already setup my Dragon profile on the Library computer using the study room USB headset, but I would like to use my own headset. Do I need to setup a new profile with the new headset?
Answer
To use another headset with Dragon, add it as a new "audio source" to the existing profile.
- Plug in the new USB headset
- Open Dragon
- On the Dragon toolbar select: Profile > Manage Dictation Sources
- In the User Profile window, click on "audio source" and follow the Profile Setup Wizard instruction.
- Enter a name for the user (e.g., Jane Richards USB2).
- From the Dictation Source menu, select the new USB Microphone (or the mic that you are using).
- Click on "Next".
- Follow the instructions in the Audio Setup Wizard to train the user profile with the new mic/headset.
