3. Follow the instructions to create a Speech Service resource, making a note of the Subscription Key and Region used.

4. Go to the AutoSync tab of the Clip Editor's Settings screen. If the module was installed correctly in the first step, there should be a Transcription/Microsoft Azure Speech Recognition Settings section.

5. Enter your Subscription Key in the appropriate field, then pick the correct Region from the drop-down.
