“It takes you straight to the audio clip and the position (time) in the audio clip that the searched item occurs:”
I’ll have to test this again. Maybe I missed something. If I remember right, OneNote didn’t actually open the audio file. Come to think of it, I’m not even sure if OneNote has an embedded audio player. I’ll have to check that out. I think you can make recordings in OneNote. As for transcribing the files, I wouldn’t expect OneNote to include this capability. Voice recognition is a complicated business. You have to train your voice in Dragon, for instance.
I always dictate the date, time and subject at the beginning of each new recording. It simplifies things when I’m searching through the files on my recorder. Still, managing audio files requires a lot of administrative overhead. Dictation’s so fast and efficient you can easily create hundreds of files before you know it.
