Transcription software allows writers and voice recorder users to save time in gathering information

Magazine, newspaper feature writers and non-fiction authors can spend hours interviewing subjects and conducting research before even starting to write their pieces. Many will use a digital voice recorder to ensure they accurately portray these conversations.

But going back through all the interviews and digital notes is a time-consuming and tedious task to face when working on a deadline. By using transcription software, these writers can quickly and easily transfer all the necessary information from digital to text format.

With transcription software, writers don't have to go back through the interviews and manually transcribe quotes, a task that can easily double the workload for a story or project.

Professional transcription platforms allow users to control the playback of an audio file with a footswitch for hands-free rewinding, fast forwarding and pausing. Many also include an audio headset, so the user can clearly hear the audio he or she is transcribing. And a file is easily transferable once entered into the system.

There are several options for high quality transcription kits that can playback most audio file formats, including .mp3, .wav, .wma, .dss, and .ds2,.
