Hi Philippa

I'd recommend the Infinity USB foot pedal, which you can purchase from Inquit Audio (you can get a discount if you're a member of the Oral History Society).

I'd also suggest using express scribe transcription software for audio playback - http://www.nch.com.au/scribe/index.html.  You can use this software for free (using the 'hotkeys' function to stop/play/rewind/forward audio), however you will need to purchase Express Scribe Pro in order to use a foot pedal. 

Best wishes

Subject: Foot pedal for oral history transcriptions

Hello,
 
Can anyone recommend a foot pedal supplier/specific foot pedal to be used to pause the recording whilst transcribing an oral history interview?
 
Many thanks,
 
Philippa
