Hi,

I wonder if anyone here can help me? I am looking for the best and most economical way to have a number of audio CD's transcribed to editable text. Your help and guidance would be much appreciated.

Kind Regards,

Ronnie.

    If you are looking for what I think you are, there are some good companies that offer that on Amazon Mechanical Turk. Just be sure to contact them as a buyer, not a worker. The companies usually perform quality checks on their workers too to make sure not just anyone is transcribing.

    I have seen the transcription jobs there on mturk.com

    Probably more expensive but you might be able to get the Dragon Natural Speaking software to do it, more typically ebook authors use it instead of typing.

    Do you need freelancer or, Software. There are some software, It can write from Audio sound. but I suggest you to use freelancer to transcribe the audio CD's sound to text. If you tell them to type manually in MS WORD, they will do at a cheap rate. I think it is better for you for more reliable result.
