Nice app, "Backtrack on Pause" (skips a couple of seconds backwards before resuming the file/movie/recording, in order to let you check what you have just transcribed) is brillant.
Though it is brutal on the CPU: come on, 80%+ on a 2GHz Core Duo just for playing a movie-file and letting you type (maybe it's the 'animated' counter?)?!!
That's unacceptable. Otherwise very nice.

Version 2 was a downgrade. I have gone back to the earlier version.

This program works as promised and is greatly enhanced over version 1 which was already a venerable application. I use it for translation purposes and think that its simplicity is a cutting edge that makes it very intuitive. I highly recommend it to everyone who earns a living on transcription.

I've been looking for an app like this. I saw this the other day, but the cheaper price makes me really thing about getting it.

Can this help voice recognition software turn audio books (I have many of these) into PDFs? How does Transcriva differ from Express Scribe? (Transcriva's a larger download so I assume it has more features.)

Looks like an amazing program for the price - much better than just using my digital recorder. Have to give it a try!

The ability to also take notes during the playback makes it super.

Downloaded and tried. Can't find the ability to adjust the pitch, which even my iPod does automatically. Neverless, appears to be s/w I will use.

Looks like a good tool to use for transcribing INTERVIEWS as well as general notetaking at events, and minute-taking at meetings.

Wow I have done a lot of transcribing and this looks really useful!
Oct 4 2007

Does it understand French and German ? I'd be thrilled!

Sounds like just what I need for transcribing long meetings -- but I wish that it had voice recognition software so that it would do the typing for me!

I have to transcribe and write synopsis of podcasts all the time for Sally Hogshead. I've tried doing it using the Quicktime player- and was constantly frustrated with the FF and Rewind tools- plus- no time codes to go back and reference things. Downloaded the demo- and once I disabled cmd spacebar from opening Spotlight in System Prefs- Keyboard and Mouse/ shortcuts-
it was great.
Note- this works in any language you do- it doesn't transcribe for you- it plays the audio and lets you write what you hear.
Great tool- for $11 worth every penny.

Try it out first - on an iMac G4 1 GHz it slows down quite badly the more captions you add (probably due to using graphics for text), so after just 20-30 captions added it becomes pretty unusable for me on the iMac. Works fine on my MacBook Pro (2.16 GHz C2D)

I never knew something like this exsisted. I am so psyched becuase I will get much use out of this app. I can nw transcribe our monthly council meetings much faster. Thanks macupdate!

Worth the price just for the ability to speed up transcripts. I receive a lot of pre-recorded classes and such, and this tool will save me much time in listening. The ability to also take notes during the playback makes it super.

Sounds interesting. Did anyone try it with not native English speakers?
Oct 4 2007
Version: 1.21
Well, I don't like that it can only use shortcut key compbinations which include the command key - "command-space" for me is already Launchbar, so I would have liked to use "alt-space" instead. So instead I use "command- -" - oh well. The demo has a twenty minute limitation, but you can still evaluate it. Seems buyable. We'll see.

This looks interesting. Anyone know what competitive products are out there and how it compares?

This is *almost* what i need to replace OneNote 2007, if only it supported annotations, i.e. import a pdf of a lecture slide and annotate while recording the lecture. Anyone know of a program that does that?

I own two licenses, and I strongly recommend Transcriva. It is in my opinion the best transcription tool for Mac, it is very stable, very efficient, easy and pleasant to use. It saves me a lot of time!

If you've ever tried to record a meeting in order to type up minutes -- or recorded a lecture intending to type up notes later -- you know the frustration of keeping up with the speaker or various speakers. This looks like a great simplifier, and I need a little simplicity! Now if only it would type them for me, or attend the meetings in the first place in my stead....

This looks extremely useful! I spent some days transcribing some long interviews using iTunes a couple of months ago, and it was a rather trying exercise. I wish I'd known about this at the time. I think I'll get this for potential use in the future.

Different functions than Slow Downer with gives pitch constance as well as slower transcribing speed. Using Apple's speech (playback) function would be a good addition to check the ear-feel of a transcription, as has been mentioned. Also a foot pedal option which many transcriber are used to using. There's real potential here.

this would help a lot for after interviews for college projects. I might consider this one.

Does IBM still produce ViaVoice? That would be a better alternative to this, as it automatically transcripts text from an audio file in real time.

Never heard of this one, I guess I need to try it, because the concept seems cool...

Been looking for a transcriber for about two weeks now - perfect.

Can't believe my girlfriend needed something like this just last week, and I didn't even know it existed.
Will have to give it a try.
Oct 4 2007
Version: 1.21
Looks pretty cool. I think it will fit very good in my "news workflow"
Oct 4 2007

Giving it a whirl. The price is right on. I make notes to myself with my phone. This might give me the impetus to actually do something with them.

This thing sounds really neat.. and I've recently become "coerced" into transcribing notes from meetings for family member because I know how to work the digital voice recorder they use...
Oct 4 2007
Version: 1.21
sounds like a nice little app. I was thinking about using it for podcast transcription, too.
Oct 4 2007
Version: 1.21
I think it could be improved by having a text playback option (like TextEdit), so you can have the text spoken back to you.

Doesn't seem to have pitch control, which is important since it has speed control. Wish it worked with foot pedals too, though I imagine some foot pedal somewhere must let you assign a key combo to the pedals. Not that I saw any.

Interesting idea. I don't think I've seen anything else like it.
Oct 4 2007

Seems like a unique idea to fill a particular niche. As a previous commenter remarked, it might be good for transcribing an audio podcast.
Oct 4 2007
Version: 1.21
Looks very useful. I'll have to give it a try first. Anyone have any experience with this software?
Oct 4 2007

I could see this as a very handy tool for those recording lectures in college. Great idea for an app!
Oct 4 2007
Version: 1.21
This is really useful! I may have to start recording meetings just so I can take the minutes. Or it could be a useful way to transcribe an audio or video podcast.
Oct 4 2007
Version: 1.21
This is a pretty good idea actually, and the price seems right.
Oct 4 2007
Version: 1.21
This could be great for those professors who make up their exams from lecture.
Oct 4 2007
Version: 1.21
I wish my phone calls were worth recording. That's pretty cool.
Oct 4 2007
Version: 1.21
Well, I'll try it out but I doubt I'll need it. Seems really cool though.
