# 13617: Record: Recording length is out of range for transcription

Log Level: WARNING

## Description

Twilio could not process the transcription because the duration of the recording is either too short or too long. The recording itself will not be affected.

### Possible solutions

* Transcription is currently limited to recordings with a duration greater than 2 seconds and less than 120 seconds. Consider using the maxLength parameter for `<Record>` to limit the duration of the recording. See [transcription TwiML reference](/docs/voice/twiml/record#attributes-transcribe) for more information.
