Abstract: Systems, methods, and non-transitory, tangible, and computer-readable mediums may be used to provide an efficient voice memorandum program interface for a voice memorandum program that is consistent between various modes and operations of the voice memorandum program while clearly illustrating actions to be performed in response to various inputs of the voice memorandum program interface.

Abstract: A method for visually representing a recording session on a display, the method including displaying, by a processor on a display device, an icon having a shape, receiving audio data, and generating pulses that radiate outwardly, concentrically, and separately from the icon. A timing of the pulses may correspond to audio events within the audio data, a starting size of the pulses may correspond to an amplitude of the audio events within the audio data, and a spacing between consecutive pulses may correspond to a timing between the audio events within the audio data. The radiating pulses can be circular and may expand outwardly from the icon. The audio events may include audio transients. The icon can be circular, polygonal, three-dimensional (e.g., spherical), or the like.
