DEF

[The] use of a closed microphone to make verbatim recordings of material spoken at conferences or similar proceedings and the transcription of the material recorded in this manner.

OBS

The principal difference between closed microphone and shorthand reporting work is in the different techniques used to record the spoken word. The shorthand reporter uses manually or machine written symbols, requiring a high degree of skill and knowledge in their use. The closed microphone reporter uses the closed microphone device which requires the ability to repeat spoken material simultaneously with and at the rate equal to that used by the speaker.
