Audio Conferencing

Many people are confused as to why the transcript (audio typing) apparently costs more than one copy typing, since both types of services. This article aims to explain the differences between the two services that make the cost of a transcription service.

In the first case, copy writing. Usually refers to write a written record '- could be a written document (perhaps written on a typewriter, and to be included in a word processing program) or a Handwritten document. The cost will depend on the ease of readability but with basic copy writing, no change or interpretation required typist simply types what is written in front of them. The cost of writing services vary depending on how difficult it is to write to decipher – it will be relatively less compared to the original document or writing is very clear typescript.

Transcription, on the other hand, has no copy to the typist to look at only> The audio recordings are perhaps an audio tape, video, DVD or digital audio recording. It leads to a series of questions by typing copy does not have: a clear voice, the content is comprehensible (eg highly technical content can be filled with words transcriptionist was not aware), the recording quality is good (for example, there is no background tape hiss or background noise environment of the band is engaged in '), is literallyword (for word transcript with all the UMS "and ERS ', intervention models and fillers such as" sa "," You know what I mean "or" repeated often by means of recording you want the session to improve care grammar and sentence structure?

Transcription is clearly much more involved of a writing sample. Another thing to remember is that an hour of footage not one hours of transcription time. Even an experienced transcriptionist will be able to average fourtimes longer for a well, a clear-on-one interview – so an hour in the draft will have an average of four hours to write. (Standard industry by industry standards of production help (I998), published by OBC, Columbus, OH, USA), a group or a poorly recorded session will be more reasonable. So when you receive an offer within hours of recording may seem like a lot of money, but remember that it is not your hourly rate transcriptionist, but rather an offer on aat least four hours of his time.

Transcriptionists also need to understand what is said along the speech properly and use correct spelling (the word, as we / they / they 're that sound the same but written differently.)

Many transcriptionists specialize in a particular area, so that you are familiar with the technical aspects, such as medical transcription, legal transcription. Others are more generalist and work on minor technical transcripts such as researchgroup interviews and market research focus, video or telephone conferences, seminars and conferences. It can do everything, of course, contains technical information, and if it is useful to your transcriptionist with a list of keywords, or at least some basic information about your work. Otherwise, Google is a fantastic tool, if properly used for research in the field, but increases the total time required to produce the transcript, and therefore the cost.

Now isclear that the ability of transcription simply request a copy to write with any changes or formatting involved, and therefore commands a higher hourly rate.
