An audio processing system

摘要

An audio processing system (1) has real time recording and logging computers (10,15) which record sound and annotation text in real time. A sound file (SF) and a log file (LF) are associated with each take. The logging computer (15) uses automatic entries to a tag file on a server (12) to maintain synchronism between the log and sound files. Timeline references are embedded as text within the log files. A transcription workstation (16) retrieves the corresponding sound and log files and the log file may be exported to a word processing application with the embedded time line references to provide a template. The transcription workstation (16) correlates time with digital data strings to allow simple payback using foot pedals in a conventional manner. It also allows selection of text using a graphical tool with automatic searching to the associated sound file segment. <IMAGE>
