PennController.InitiateRecorderGlobal Commands

PennController.InitiateRecorder( url )

or PennController.InitiateRecorder( url , message )

Note: you cannot use this command if you install a custom build of PennController that does not include the VoiceRecorder element.

Use this to specify the URL of the PHP file to upload the audio recordings collected during the experiment.

PennController.InitiateRecorder creates a PennController trial asking for the participant’s consent to record audio samples. You can specify a message to replace the default one. Use the label command on it to determine when it should appear in your sequence of trials.

Example:

PennController.InitiateRecorder(
    "https://myserver/uploadVoices/saveRecordings.php"
    ,
    "This experiment collects audio recordings. \u003Cstrong\u003EOnce you grant it access to your recording device, you will be notified of whether you are being recorded by a label at the top of the page\u003C/strong\u003E"
);

PennController(
    newVoiceRecorder("recorder")
        .print()
        .wait()
);

PennController.InitiateRecorder( "https://myserver/uploadVoices/saveRecordings.php" , "This experiment collects audio recordings. \u003Cstrong\u003EOnce you grant it access to your recording device, you will be notified of whether you are being recorded by a label at the top of the page\u003C/strong\u003E" ); PennController( newVoiceRecorder("recorder") .print() .wait() );

Adds a page asking for the participant’s authorization to use their recording device, using a custom text message.
