Helpful Hints for Clients seeking a Transcription Service

The length of time a typist takes to transcribe a recording will depend on several factors – including number of speakers, background noise, muffled speech, people interrupting each other, background noise etc.  In these instances, it may take the typist longer to transcribe the file as he/she will need to rewind the recording and listen again to unclear words.
