My digital recorder stores files in WMA (Windows Media) format. Yes it would, and I’m still expecting to be able to do it, the process hasn’t been smooth. And since I already have some keyboard shortcuts for starting and pausing iTunes, wouldn’t it be great if I imported the audio files from my digital recorder into iTunes and played it back as I type it up. What about just typing up what I’ve dictated? I don’t expect to dictate great chunks of text, so even my modest typing skills should suffice. And correcting every time you notice a mistake in the transcription is certain to make your sentences disjointed and raise your blood pressure. Unfortunately, the user interface for corrections is awful-the cursor moves soooooooo sloooooooowly that if you’re correcting a big chunk of text (which is what the iListen people recommend) you’ll spend most of your time navigating back and forth to the errors. I guess the many many errors are to be expected at this early stage correcting the errors within the iListen environment should teach it the peculiarities of my voice and the sorts of words/phrased I commonly use. I spent a good deal of time reading the training texts, then started dictating my own stuff.

The Mac seems to be limited to iListen (no link, you don’t want it). What I’d like is a nice dictation/transcription system, but I’ve decided that speech recognition is not the way to go. I’ve been screwing around with audio files pretty much all day today, and I’m not happy about it.
