What to consider when choosing an audio transcriber

With the right audio transcription software, you can get quick, accurate results at an affordable price. Choose an audio transcriber that’s fast and automatic. Although, depending on the length of your recording, transcriptions should only take a few minutes. You don’t need to compromise on accuracy for speed, reliable audio online transcription software should still transcribe accurately. A quick tip is to go for high-quality audio recording software as clearer recordings lead to more accurate transcriptions. Once you’ve got that covered, look out for

audio transcript file formats. Text (TXT) files are ideal for repurposing audio into written content, and SubRip (SRT) files are timestamped, making them suitable for quick and easy subtitles or captions. Take into account if you’ll be transcribing audio with multiple speakers. You’ll want to make sure your audio transcriber comes with robust speech recognition that can differentiate between speakers. The software you choose should also be easy to use and accessible without complicated downloads.
