Re: Using Voice Recognition for Transcription



I have been wondering about the advantages of the new deluxe medical
version of Dragon NS. It is expensive, but from what they advertise,
needs little to no training. I think there is a lot for me to
consider here after reading the above posts. My proof-as-I-type
skills are far superior to my regular proofreading skills, and I worry
about that in the context of having to edit a finished document for
odd errors. I would hope that I could proof as I talk as I listen as
I type, but there is an element of rubbing head and patting belly to
that that might make it difficult. I do have a clear voice and good
diction so that would probably make it a bit easier to work with this.

I think I will try the VR on my sister's Vista computer and see how
comfortable I am with that. If it works for me will talk to a sales
rep for Dragon and go from there.

If anyone has more to say about actually using this I would be
grateful, and thank you for the detailed responses so far.
