speech recognition on Mac?
#4
I have been using MacSpeech Dictate for awhile, and I find it quite good.

I will dictate your question-and not do any corrections---we will see.

Start

Is anyone using speech recognition am happy with?
MacSpeech for Intel Macs had some positive reviews. But when I talk to people, they always frown and say that they try it and found it did not quite work.

I continue still using dictation.

The initial learn your speech cycle in the beginning is actually not very long. It seemed to learn my voice quite well. Right now, I am dictating 2 feet away from my aluminum iMac using the regular small microphone that is embedded in the frame.

I have also used this with my Mac book Pro and have had similar results.

My typing speed is, just okay, but I tend to make a lot of typos. This is demonstrably faster than typing for me.

I have heard that they use the same dragon naturally speaking speech engine that is used on the PC. I don't know, but it works for me.

The thing I can't wait for is speech recognition typing for the iPhone.

The only time this seems to make mistakes is when I get lazy and do not even see eight properly. Well there is a good example I meant to say, when I get lazy and do not enunciate properly.
