WavPlayer
WavPlayer by Bytescribe is an audio player program that allows the user to listen to standard Windows sound files while controlling them with a foot pedal. A transcriptionist can transcribe dictated reports without taking her hands off of the keyboard. The foot pedal controls the play, pause, rewind and fast forward functions. The software can run in a minimized state so that the transcriptionist is able to type into a word processor on the same computer. The WavPlayer software also offers speed and adjustable backspace controls. The WavPlayer is very popular for medical transcription, legal transcription, law enforcement and transcription schools.
