Saving Transcriptions
Once you have completed the transcription for the current
audio clip be sure to save the text you have entered. The saved
transcription will be automatically associated with the audio clip,
and will be available for
later retrieval.
It is recommended that you save your transcription at regular
intervals to reduce the risk of lost input due to systems errors. To
save the transcription, press the ‘Save’ button on the transcription
toolbar.
Cut, Copy and Paste
The standard editing tools of Cut, (Ctrl + X), Copy (Ctrl + C), and
Paste
(Ctrl + V), are available from the transcription toolbar.
Compact Player
If you wish to playback audio material without the need for the
transcription window, select ‘View->Compact’ from the menu.
The small player gives you control over the audio playout, volume
control and use of the foot pedal control.
To return to the full window for track selection, select ‘View-
>Normal’ from the menu.

Start Bar Caption
D:Scribe’s start bar caption can be used to display either the
current Play Position, Recorded Time or Time Remaining. Make
