If you do transcripts for a living do you use stenography in your work?
Not really. I use a transcribing software called Express Scribe, which allows you to have hotkeys (tab=play, for instance). When I’m typing the transcript Word, I can stop, play, and rewind with the hotkeys without having to switch between programs.
I also use automatic corrections on Word so that I don’t have to type out long words every time (int = international, et.c). Other than that, I just type everything as I go along. I’m a pretty fast typist. The WTNV files are ideal, because the pace of Cecil’s reading is so calm, I don’t have to stop or rewind much. I can just type as he talks.
