Its Here And Boy Is It Good ! MacSpeech Dictate

Voice recognition for Mac OS X users has finally arrived, it didn't just fly in on a chartered flight this software arrived in a stretched limo it is that special.

For a few years now Mac users have lagged behind the Windites with their Dragon Naturally Speaking but not anymore. MacSpeech Dictate which is powered by the Dragon engine from the people at Nuance is really something special.

It is version 1.0 so yes not every single feature you would expect of a mature voice recognition software package is there ... yet ! Regular updates are promised and will happen quite soon.

In the meantime there are quite a few YouTube videos floating around including some made by us showing Dictate in action.

Here are just a couple ....

Coming To Australia - Speech Recognition On Mac

Something we are very excited about here at Dictate Australia is the soon to arrive Dictate speech recognition software from MacSpeech. Dictate is the latest release of MacSpeech's very popular iListen software but Dictate will be powered by the voice recognition engine used by the highly successful and very popular Nuance Dragon Naturally Speaking software.
Latest news is that Dictate will hit Australia towards the end of Q1 2008. This will be followed by the Transcription Pak which will allow the use of digital voice recorders to do deferred transcription, the process of processing speech from audio recorded on a digital voice recorder. Currently MacSpeech have certified the Olympus DS-2300 and DS-4000 models to work with the Transcription Pak.

We plan to become a leading reseller in Australia for Dictate solutions with digital voice recorders. For any questions on Dictate or iListen you can direct them to us sales@dictate.com.au
