A profile is a complete set of data on how you speak. In order to use into Dragon Dictate, you must have at least one profile. Each user of Dragon Dictate must create his or her own profile.
To open the Profiles window, choose Tools > Profiles. If you have checked Show Profiles Window in the General Preferences pane, the Profiles window will appear automatically when you start up Dragon Dictate, offering you a chance to activate a profile; otherwise, Dragon Dictate activates the profile you were previously using.
Every profile has a name, which uniquely identifies it. The name of the active profile is visible in the Status window (as its title bar).
To create a profile:
In the Profiles window, click the
button. The Profile Enrollment process begins. Give the profile a name and click Next. Then select an audio source, give it a name and click Next. Choose your Region and Accent in the next two steps, clicking Next after each option. Choose a place to save your profile and wait while Dragon Dictate creates it. We recommend saving profiles in your Documents folder. You will then be taken to the Microphone
Setup window and the Voice
Training window for further preparation of the microphone and voice
model.
To delete a profile:
Select the profile’s listing in the Profiles window and click
the
button. You can’t do this if there
is only one profile.
To add an Audio Source:
Existing profiles from an earlier versions
are marked in the Profiles window with a special
icon (
) and need to be upgraded before you can continue using them.
Please note that you can't upgrade a profile that has a missing microphone.
To dismiss the Profiles window:
Create or activate a profile.
Click the red close button in the upper left corner.
