Keypress to initiate mediarecord

[ktetzloff]

Is there a way to initiate the recorder via key press rather than with a button click or a timer? Right now, if I use .print() with newVoiceRecorder it makes a button, but i would really like to be able to initiate the recorder with a key press instead. Is there any way to do this? Here is an example item below. Thank you so much!!!

[“item”, “PennController”, PennController(
newText(“instructions”, “Listen to the sentence and then repeat it while recording your voice”)
.print()
,
newAudio(“sound”, “webaddressofsounnd.html”)
.print()
.wait()
,
getAudio(“sound”)
.remove()
,
newVoiceRecorder(“recorder”) \\this is where i would like the keypress rather than button
.print()
,
newButton(“validate”, “Click to continue”)
.print()
.wait()
)]

Hi,

You can do the following (and in the Key command insert any Key you want, and you can add optional text with instructions ):

[“item”, “PennController”, PennController(
newText(“instructions”, “Listen to the sentence and then repeat it while recording your voice”)
.print()
,
newAudio(“sound”, “webaddressofsounnd.html”)
         .print()
         .wait()
,
getAudio(“sound”)
        .remove()
,
newMediaRecorder("recorder", "audio")
        .record()
        .log()
,
newKey(" ")
        .wait()
,
getMediaRecorder("recorder")
        .stop()
,
newButton(“validate”, “Click to continue”)
        .print()
        .wait()
)]

Hope it helps!
