Transcriva

Transcriva 1.0, from Bartas Technologies, recently came out. For those of you who haven’t heard about it, it’s a new audio transcription program for Mac OS X 10.3 or later. More than a few genealogists do interviews with family members and the like, while making audio recordings of them, and this allows you to easily produce an accurate transcript (including RTF).

Product Description:

Dictaphones are yesterday’s news. Transcriva turns the mechanical chore of transcribing audio recordings into text into a natural, fluid process using the power of Mac OS X. The unique chat-like interface produces a clean, concise transcript whether you’re transcribing a single speaker’s dictation or the Board’s meeting minutes. Transcriva accepts most any audio format supported by Apple QuickTime. Add a clip, press play, and start typing – the only thing easier is making someone else do it for you!
