A good transcription is the key to providing an accurate written account of what someone is saying and helps to fully convey their experiences. This becomes imperative when trying to capture crucial information from an audio medical consultation or recorded police interview. A full written record is often legally required; transcription provides this
Transcription involves listening to speech and converting that into a written document, which then forms an invaluable source and a permanent written record of the audio files. Even low-quality audio files can be transformed into an accurate and useful written document.
Transcription is particularly useful for focus groups, interviews and face to face conversations, as it converts the recordings into a readable format and creates a comprehensive record of the session. This can then be filed and used for future reference. It is also useful in medical or legal contexts, where a written record of patient-doctor discussions or expert witness testimony may be required at a later date.
