Arrive 10 minutes early
Both participants should arrive together, 10 minutes before the start time shown on your confirmation. Late arrivals may lose the slot because studio time is booked back to back.
Before your session
A Duplex session is just a conversation — but a well-prepared pair makes the recording far more useful. Here's everything you need to know.
You record in pairs
Each session is one pair. It's a relaxed, podcast-style conversation — two people talking naturally together, each on their own clean audio channel.
Your chosen topics guide the talk
We use the topics you selected when booking as prompts. There's no script — the goal is unforced, everyday conversation, including overlaps, laughter and pauses.
120 minutes (2 hours), with breaks
Roughly 10 minutes of setup and mic checks, 100 minutes of recording in blocks, and 10 minutes to wrap up. You can pause any time.
Come rested, bring water
Speak at your natural volume and pace. Avoid heavy meals right before and skip strong mints or gum — they're audible.
Leave noisy items behind
Jangling jewellery, crinkly jackets and smart watches with haptics all end up in the recording. Phones go on silent, not vibrate.
Recordings are used to improve conversational AI for Mexican Spanish. We never use them for voice identification. See the privacy policy.
