I have just bought a piece of software called Cool Edit 2000. I bought a
jack lead and recorded what was on my mini disc straight onto the computer
using Cool Edit. (Approx $69) Unfortunately the process does not stop there
if you need a complete transcript of the interview.
I bought WAV pedal (approx $190) which can be used by myself or our typist
to listen to the recording made in Cool Edit and use a pedal to start and
stop the recording and change its pace and thus type out the interview. Its
a bit of a convoluted process but I have not come across an easier way yet!
It is easy to find the websites for these two pieces of software using a
search engine.
Good luck

Subject: recording interviews with minidisk and software
Hi all
any opinions on the best software to use with minidisk
and - how does one go about transferring files from minidisk to computer ?
Are there arcane pieces of technology we need to buy?
Any advice would be most helpful...
PS - re: software for minidisk, we're specifically interested in software
that will allow us to download interviews as sound files and code them that
way...
