A transcription system (100, 200) includes multiple recording devices (110, 210) that individually record and store (516), into multiple files, digital data representing speech uttered by multiple speakers. In a preferred embodiment, time stamps are stored (514) along with the speech. A transcription computer (120, 230) enables a user to select (602) which of multiple files the user would like to have transcribed, and to associate (604) a speaker ID to each of the multiple files. The transcription computer then transcribes (1006) phrases within the multiple files, and stores (1008) those phrases in a sequential order, based on the time stamps. The user may also cause an offset time for each file to be adjusted (606, 916), thus affecting the ultimate sequential order of the transcribed phrases. After transcription, the user may edit (1104) the time stamps, speaker IDs, and/or phrases.
