Audition cleans up the audio; the script and the notes are still typed. Hold a key and talk: Typally transcribes and types it into Adobe Audition without you touching the keyboard.
Disclosure: Typally is our product. We have tried to describe what Adobe Audition already does without talking you out of using it.Speech-to-text transcription of your recordings in recent versions.
Transcribing what was recorded is solved. Writing the script beforehand, and the episode description afterwards, is not — and both are done by the same tired person who just finished editing.
In practice people use it for: Scripts, marker notes, episode descriptions, show notes, and client revision replies.
You do not configure anything in Adobe Audition. The hotkey works wherever your cursor happens to be:
Install, sign in, and it waits in the tray.
Text goes wherever Adobe Audition has focus. One click first saves undoing a paragraph in the wrong box.
Nothing truncates part-way through.
Audition transcribes your footage, not your writing. The two are different directions.
Typally works in the opposite direction to Audition's transcription and pairs neatly with it: speak the script, record it, let Audition transcribe the result. Prose that started as speech is what makes a natural read possible.
A voiceover artist speaks the script first, then records it. The read needs half as many takes, because the sentences were built for a mouth rather than a page.
Dictate the script and read it back before recording. Text written by speaking sounds natural when read aloud; text written by typing usually does not.
Audition transcribes your footage, not your writing. The two are different directions.
Yes, recent versions transcribe your recordings. That is your audio becoming text, not you composing.
Because spoken-origin text sounds natural when read aloud. Typed prose often reads stilted.
Yes — markers have text fields.
There is a permanent free tier of 100 minutes a month. Pro costs $7.99/month and raises the limit.
