Harry-

Years ago, circa 1975, court reporters in Louisville had equipment  
available that would take tape transcriptions and print them out  on  
paper. Of course, like our present OCR programs, they made a bunch of  
mistakes.

As to putting tapes on my computer, I have no problems with Roxio's  
disc doctor program. I just took an hour of Count Basie in Sterio,  
put it on my Mac, and made a CD from the same. With my version of   
Roxio, (not the latest)it automatically transfers my tapes to itunes.

I can use my old Sony reel to reel, or casset tapes, or even of 78  
records. However, if one of the tapes are poor, of if the record is  
poor, you can only  filter out so much noise.

Anyone have experience with digital recorders.

I was interviewing someone for my upcoming "Notes From the Motherboard"
for the May Access article and the tape recorder ate the tape. I want to
get a digital recorder that will record 1.5 to 2 hrs. and plug into a
usb port on the Mac to transfer the file to the Mac.

Any suggestions?

Also, is there software available that will turn speech into text? Would
it be able to transfer recorded speech as well as speech from the
computer's microphone?

Thanks.

Harry
