INTRODUCTION

D:Scribe Standalone

Introduction to D:Scribe Standalone

D:Scribe Standalone (DS-STS3 or DS-STU3) is a package of PC transcription

software together with a 3 pedal foot-controller, for simple, fast and eﬀective

transcription of pre-recorded audio ﬁles. The software was designed for third-

party transcription services and anyone using D:Scribe Client and Server who

needs to transcribe audio ﬁles oﬀ-site. For use without the foot-pedal, D:Scribe

Standalone licences can be ordered (DS-ST01, DS-ST05, DS-ST25, DS-ST100).

D:Scribe Standalone is the perfect transcription package to use for quick, simple

voice-to-text conversion which can be used either with it’s own text editor, or

which can “ﬂoat” on top of another application, such as MS Word™.

D:Scribe Standalone has all the transcription features of the full Client & Server

version, but doesn’t have the management database structure for multiple

clients.

Standard audio controls for transcription include Play, Pause, (Fast) Forward and

Rewind by deﬁned amounts. Holding the Rewind and Fast-Forward buttons

makes them decrement and increment faster depending on your settings.

Previous and Next buttons allow you to go to the previous and next recordings

respectively, which is useful where a long session has been captured over a

number of recordings. There are also volume & playback speed controls. A foot-

pedal is supplied as standard with this package which controls the Play/Pause,

Forward & Rewind buttons.

Bookmarks allow you to deﬁne new start and end playback points and the

recorded time and date can be altered on screen to create a time-start reference

point. A playlist can be compiled to play through multiple ﬁles and the playback

speed can be altered between slow, normal and fast at a constant pitch.

The software includes options to change the functionality of the foot-pedal: To

allow one touch start/stop of the play pedal, of ‘hold down to play’ operation;

playback can skip back a number of seconds on pausing; fast forward and

rewind pedals can be reversed and recordings can optionally be controlled by

the foot-pedal.

A spell-checker is available and 12 user deﬁned function keys can be used

to enter repetitive material such as names, places and recurring events. The

recorded time & date (if transcribing Net-Log audio ﬁles) and the current time &

date are also available.

Finished transcripts can be simply emailed by clicking the on-screen email

button, which runs your standard email client to send the text ﬁle.

INSTALLATION & USB DONGLE

D:Scribe Standalone operates with all MS Windows Media Player™ standard ﬁle

types: broadcast .wav, .wav, .aif, .aifc, .aiﬀ, .asf, .asx, .wax, .wma, .wmv, .wvx, .wmp,

.wmx, .avi, .mpeg, .mpg, .m1v, .mp2, .mp3, .mpa, .mpe, .mpv2 and .m3u.

V2.0 D:Scribe Standalone adds a number of additional features including

support for video playback from DVD. See page 5 for further information.

Licencing and Dongles

D:Scribe Standalone uses a USB dongle to unlock the full features and

functionality of the software.

The software can be used for demonstration and evaluation purposes without a

dongle, but with limited functionality.

When using D:Scribe Standalone without a dongle, a screen reminding you of

the limited functionality will be shown periodically.

Limited functionality precludes saving transcripts and copying typed text to the

clipboard, also recordings made in the Record Screen are limited to 30 seconds

in length.
