Online Analogue Audio Transcription Services in the UK
Lesley Ann Saunders transcribes standard, mini and micro-cassette tapes.
It takes approximately 2- 2½ hours to transcribe a 30 minute tape depending on the clarity of the tape, the type of transcription required, how many people are dictating and whether there is any technical information, specialist terminology, or accents.
The above is taken from an example of a clear tape of one or two persons dictating.
For interview tapes of more than 2 people speaking or verbatim transcription, the transcription time would be increased.
It should be noted that if more than one person is speaking at the same time then the typist would have to keep going back over the tape to clarify what the speaker was saying and this would increase the transcription time.
Cassette tapes will be posted back to the client by Royal Mail by recorded mail or special delivery (see Terms & Conditions).
