run it at the end of your workday or when you don’t need to use the
computer for other tasks.

Click the Go button to start the Acoustic Optimizer.

How often you should run the Acoustic Optimizer depends on how
much you dictate. Run the Acoustic Optimizer about two weeks after
you begin using Dragon NaturallySpeaking

®

and then once each month

as you continue to use it.

Perform additional training

When you first started Dragon NaturallySpeaking

®

, you read to the

computer for about five minutes to teach it the sound of your voice.
Click the “Perform additional training” link in the Accuracy Center to
continue this process of training the computer. The first time you
perform additional training, you will need to read for about twenty
minutes. For the second and subsequent times that you perform
additional training, you can read for as little time as you like—even as
briefly as a minute or two.

If you encounter very low accuracy, perform the twenty or so minutes of
additional training as soon as possible after starting to use Dragon
NaturallySpeaking

®

. This will give the program maximum information

about the sound of your voice. Then, perform brief, one- or two-minute
sessions of additional training if your microphone changes, if your voice
sounds a bit different than usual, or if you are getting lower accuracy
than usual. See the box “One minute to fewer errors” on page 155.
