transcription tool to support manual transcription and annotation of
audio recordings. XTrans provides a flexible and intuitive graphical
user interface for a multitude of speech annotation tasks including
(virtual) segmentation of audio into smaller units (turns and
sentences), speaker identification, orthographic transcription in any
language and labeling of structural elements of the transcript. It also
allows the user to configure shortcuts and transcripts are output in a
Tab Delineated Format (TDF). Windows and Linux versions are <b

XTrans also fully supports overlapping speech transcription from a
virtually unlimited number of audio channels. A pdf tutorial is also

<div dir="ltr">Hi<br>
We are working a spoken corpus and I was wondering if there is a free
(open source) tool available to help transcribe the audio/video files
(features like backward, forward and speed setting, autosave of
text/transcribed file etc).<br>
