Speech to Text Software?
Contro:
Is a pending subject. it's not easy....
joiwind:
Renegade, another one you might like to look at here (look for PROBLEM ORIENTED RECORDS installer), there's a full description at Softpedia here.
I know it talks about medical records and so on but it contains a speech recognition word processor.
You never know ... :P
joiwind:
Waking up an old thread with a new find for Renegade : Dictation Pro (free..?) - it only works with Vista and Win 7 ... >:(
anandcoral:
Yeah, just read about "Dictation Pro" in http://freewarehome.com/ (new listings) and was wondering if any one could tell it's worthness.
Now since @joiwind mentioned it, I hope @Renegade will try and give some feedback :)
brothersoft.com has some but all paidware, same for naturalreaders.com.
@Renegade, http://chronicle.com/blogs/profhacker/5-easy-speech-to-text-solutions/23016 gives tips to use Google Voice to make voicemail left for you, transcribed and then sent to your Gmail inbox !
I haven't tried any, and will be happy if someone reverts with the results.

Hi
I specialise in speech recognition software, I sell Dragon NaturallySpeaking and I always get it to work with my clients.
You might want to get help on a dedicated Dragon forum (like KnowBrainer Forum, which I am not affiliated with) if you cannot resolve problems on your own or if you don't want to call Nuance for assistance.
The only viable alternative for Windows Vista or 7 is Windows Speech Recognition, but you will need an add-on from eMicrophones (WSR Toolkit, http://emicrophones.com/p-3033-wsrtoolkit-v2.aspx; no affiliation here either) to transcribe audio files. Everything else is probably a nice try but if I were you, I would do anything to get Dragon NaturallySpeaking working with your setup. It really gets the job done.
