04 / TRANSCRIPTION
Spoken words. A usable written record.
Transcription support for recorded speech, with the output tailored to the purpose of the assignment.
Listen closely. Record carefully.
A clear transcript helps professionals work with recorded material. The language, audio quality, speakers and required level of detail all influence the scope of the work.
For recordings involving Urdu, Punjabi (Pakistani), Mirpuri or Pahari/Pothwari, we can discuss transcription and any associated English translation as part of the same brief.
RECORDING NOTES
Agree the details first.
- Recording length and sound quality
- Language varieties and number of speakers
- Verbatim or edited transcription requirements
- Timestamps and speaker labels, if required
- Whether translation is also needed
A transparent approach to the source
Unclear or inaudible passages should be identified rather than guessed. Speaker labels describe the structure of the recording and do not establish a person’s identity.
Please begin with a short description of the recording. We can then agree an appropriate transfer method and assess the material before confirming delivery and fees.
