Listen N Write Editor's review

Students, conference attendees, lawyers, and anyone who has to transcribe recorded audio should try Listen N Write, a free tool designed specifically for transcription. It doesn't use speech recognition or automatic transcription, and Microsoft Anna doesn't speak your text files out loud. It's simply a media player bundled with a text editor, but a media player with subtle but clever differences that make it a great tool for playing back recorded lectures and speeches (for example) and writing down what you hear. To begin with, the Skip arrows move the recording forward or back just a few seconds, ending the ever-so-frustrating back-and-forth as you try to zero in on a single word or short phrase. Also, when you hit the Pause button, Listen N Write's media player reverses the recording by one second, which helps keep words from being truncated.
