LiveScrypt User Guide What is LiveScrypt?
What is LiveScrypt?
LiveScrypt is an automated, AI-based live transcription solution for real-time speech-to-text transcription that's
perfect for conferences, corporate town halls, medical training, lecture capture, and any live event where greater
accessibility is needed.
The LiveScrypt transcription solution has two main components: a hardware device and an automated cloudbased transcription service.
Highly accurate and affordable, LiveScrypt supports many languages - making it incredibly versatile.
Watch live transcriptions on in-room displays or from anywhere there's Internet connectivity using your mobile
device and favorite web browser. You can even feed the HDMI output to your video production software and
chroma key out the background for a transparent lower-third effect.
The convenient 7 inch built-in touch screen lets operators monitor the live transcription, as well as set up options
like the profanity filter and automatic punctuation. LiveScrypt also offers easy-access remote setup options using
a web-based UI or Epiphan Cloud.
When your event's done, the transcription is saved to your account in the cloud. You can download the .SRT or
.TXT transcription file at any time.

Optimize audio performance
The better your audio source, the better LiveScrypt works. Here are some tips to get the best out of your
LiveScrypt device:
l
Avoid multiple people speaking at the same time or in quick succession one after the other. It takes a
moment for LiveScrypt to adjust to each person's voice.
l
Choose a quality microphone and speak directly into it at a distance of about 6 inches for a good audio
signal.
l
Only connect mixers and microphones to the input ports on the LiveScrypt device that are rated for the
compatible audio-level. Avoid adapters to connect mismatched audio signals. For more information, see
Audio inputs.
l
Some types of microphones are more sensitive and produce a stronger audio signal. Others need a lot of
gain. For general guidelines on how much gain to add to an audio signal, see Adjust audio gain.
l
Avoid placing microphones near sources of noise, like loud fans and air vents. If the environment is
unavoidably noisy, consider using a lavalier microphone with a cardioid pickup pattern for better noise
rejection.
l
Check that your audio cables aren't damaged.
Connect an external display
You can connect the HDMI output from the LiveScrypt device to in-room monitors, projectors, and any video
processing device that accepts an HDMI signal using a standard HDMI cable. No audio is included in the HDMI

3. Modify the output port options and color schemes.
4. Tap Apply when you're done.
For more details about setting Output port options, see Output display options
To test your settings, an audio device must be connected. The LiveScrypt device must also be connected to the
network and be paired to your Epiphan Cloud account with LiveScrypt transcription services setup.

Monitor audio
Audio from all connected sources are combined into a mono signal. There's a 3.5 mm audio jack for monitoring
audio on the front panel of the LiveScrypt device. You can plug external speakers or headphones into the 3.5 mm
audio jack. The same mono signal is heard in the left and right headphone speakers.
Tap or swipe the headphone volume control on the bottom of the touch screen to adjust your volume.
Increasing the headphone volume to 100% may cause you to hear distortion that is not actually
present in the audio signal being sent for transcription. At approximately 75% volume, you hear the
nominal audio level in the VU meter at approximately where the green bars change to yellow.
22
Page 28
LiveScrypt User Guide Monitor audio
A mono VU meter on the touch screen shows the audio level of the combined audio signal. The value is
displayed in dBFS (decibels relative to full scale). Colored bars represent the audio level. Similar audio VU
meters appear in other places, like where you configure the audio gain in the Settings.
To optimize transcription performance and accuracy, the average signal level should register where the green
bars change to yellow. Red indicates the audio signal is too loud and excessive peaks are clipped, which
introduces distortion. To adjust the gain, see Adjust audio gain.

Audio options
If you went through the Get started section, you already have a basic setup with some audio sources connected
to the LiveScrypt device. This section contains additional information and audio options you can setup using the
touch screen, the web interface, and Epiphan Cloud when your LiveScrypt device is paired with your Epiphan
Cloud team.
Topics:
l
Enable or disable phantom power
l
Adjust audio gain
l
Mute audio
l
Assign audio sources to an input
For information about monitoring audio, see Monitor audio.
Adjust audio gain
Having the right amount of gain applied to your microphone or other type of audio source optimizes the
performance of the transcription. You can adjust the gain for XLR, ¼" TRS, RCA, and 3.5 mm inputs using the
touch screen, web interface, and Epiphan Cloud when your LiveScrypt device is paired with your Epiphan Cloud
team.
The amount of gain you need to add depends on the strength of the original audio signal. Adjusting the Input
Gain affects the volume of the audio that's sent to the cloud for transcription and what you hear in the headphone
jack.
Be aware that excessive amounts of gain increases the noise that may already be present in the
audio signal, which can affect the accuracy of transcription.
The following table offers some guidelines for adjusting the gain at the various audio input ports on the
LiveScrypt device for common types of audio input devices. Add the suggested gain to the audio input to get an
average signal to register at a nominal level in the VU meter (i.e. where the green bars change to yellow).

To avoid unwanted signal noise on the RCA ports, we recommend adding no more than 12dB of gain to the RCA ports or when
RCA/3.5 mm is used.
Ensure the audio input source is connected to an analog audio input port on the LiveScrypt device before
proceeding. Gain is added to both the RCA and 3.5 mm inputs if the audio mode is set to RCA + 3.5 mm. For
information about setting the audio input mode, see Assign audio sources to an input.

LiveScrypt User Guide Enable or disable phantom power
Enable or disable phantom power
Phantom power is not enabled on the XLR audio input ports by default on LiveScrypt. You can enable 48 V
Phantom power for the two XLR ports using the touch screen, the web interface, and Epiphan Cloud when the
LiveScrypt device is paired with your Epiphan Cloud team.
When phantom power is enabled:
l
48 V phantom power is applied to both XLR port 1 and XLR port 2.
l
The phantom power LED beside the XLR/TRS combo jacks on the rear panel of LiveScrypt is solid on.
l
Phantom power is not applied to the ¼" TRS inputs of the combo jacks.
Connecting devices that are not designed for phantom power when phantom power is enabled for
the two XLR ports can seriously damage those devices. Always check the phantom power LED
before connecting devices to the XLR ports. A direct box can be used to provide the correct mic-level
signal to the XLR port and offers some isolation protection in case of accidental exposure to 48 V
phantom power.
To enable or disable phantom power:
1. Open the device Settings:
a.
Using the touch screen and web interface, select Settings .
b. Using Epiphan Cloud, select the LiveScrypt devices icon in the side navigation panel, and then

Assign audio sources to an input
Some audio input ports on your LiveScrypt device share internal audio processing resources and are listed
together in the user interface.
The audio sources that share resources are:
l
RCA (left and right ports)
l
3.5 mm (stereo port)
In the user interface, both the RCA and 3.5 mm audio sources appear under the label RCA/3.5 mm Audio and
both sources are enabled at their input ports by default. You can change that using the touch screen, the web
interface, and Epiphan Cloud when your LiveScrypt device is paired with your Epiphan Cloud team.
Choosing one audio source for the shared input disables the other audio source. This means that when you add
gain to RCA/3.5 mm Audio, only the audio source you assign to RCA/3.5 mm Audio has gain applied and is
activated at the input port. The other port is disabled.
To avoid unwanted signal noise on the RCA ports, we recommend adding no more than 12dB of
gain when RCA or XLR+3.5mm is selected.
To assign the audio source to an input:
1. Open the device Settings:
