"""
Prompts you to say numbers.

Start this, and then hit "Record" in Audacity.
http://www.audacityteam.org/download/
When you start Audacity, look in the bottom-left and set the Project Rate (Hz) to 8000.

It takes about 30 minutes to record a full dataset.

Tips:
- Turn off your screen saver before you start!
- Try a short recording session first to make sure everything works OK before doing the full recording.


When done, export the audio as one big .wav file and use 'split_and_label_numbers.py'
to make the labeled dataset.
