What is Voice Writing?

Voice writing is a cutting-edge technique where a skilled reporter takes proceedings of hearings by voice. He/she speaks into a speech recognition silencing mask.  This then feeds into a powerful laptop computer.  Using your voice is a very natural method of producing a record.  It also has obvious ergonomic advantages. Advanced speech recognition software translates the words into text on the computer.  The mask device mutes the reporter’s voice so he or she cannot be heard.  This technology provides realtime or delayed translation of voice to text.  Computer Aided Transcription software assists the reporter in producing a professional product.  Voice reporters have obtained very high levels of expertise, and can accurately shadow the words of speakers in excess of 200 wpm.

Where can voice writing be used?

Voice writing is perfect for arbitrations, AGMs, board meetings, workshops, conferences, focus groups, interviews, lectures. 

Advantages to you from using our voice writing technique:

• Imagine the ability to produce a draft transcript seconds after the words are spoken, and thus not needing to record a meeting and have to send the recording away for transcription. 
• Imagine there is a set budget, and clients want to know at any time during a meeting how much a transcript has so far cost them.

Transcripts Plus can do this – and much more.

Transcripts Plus is utilising the most advanced technology available in the southern hemisphere to assist business into the new millennium. Audio typing of transcripts becomes unnecessary. Our transcripts when viewed on our computer software can be two or three dimensional – that is, we can synchronise text, voice and now video – seconds after the words are spoken – and at a very competitive price, because we are a one-stop-shop.  We record AND produce the written transcript at the same time, within seconds of the words being uttered. 

We are more than happy to provide you with no cost or obligation demonstration of the cutting-edge technology that is now the backbone of our business. 

• You just meet and speak as you would normally. A qualified reporter attends the meeting (or works from a remote location) and professionally uses Computer Aided Transcription technology trained for the reporter’s specific voice.  You do not need to buy any equipment, be specially trained, or speak into any device, thus ensuring high accuracy.
• The actual progressive cost of a transcript can be called up at any time by the use of a page counter.
• The meeting is digitally recorded in addition to realtime, instant production of the transcript – this is transcripts at the speed of thought.  Our cutting-edge digital system also has more than four separate audio channels.
• A rough draft transcript can be produced at the end of a meeting – at an addition cost of $1.50 per A4 page.
• The reporter can quickly move the equipment to any setting within minutes.
