How to Transfer Voice to Text
If you're a writer, lecturer, transcriber or student, you can use voice-to-text software (also called speech-recognition software) to produce written documents by simply speaking into a microphone. It simplifies the writing process and reduces the need to type on a keyboard. People who invest in this software do so to save time and increase productivity. Simply speak the words and the voice-recognition software translates it to written text.

Convert voice to text using LumenVox Speech Engine as another alternative (see Resources). The tool captures your speech with a microphone, compares it to a list of common grammatical terms (like a dictionary), and then transfers the speech to a text file. The software analyzes waveforms of sound to get a close match to what the speaker said. Pay a monthly subscription fee for either 500 words at a time or purchase a full license that covers unlimited words per session.
