Express Scribe Pro

Paid $50 and the app quit loading my wav files on my mac. I have contacted support multiple times. Waste of money.

I thought I was purchasing a speech-to-text app in the same vein as "Dragon Dictation" or "Notes", or whatever coding supports this function when I dictate a SMS into my phone, but I was just buying a slow-downer. CAPO 3, a free app I had download a few minutes prior, isolates phrases very well already, allowing for a human transcriber to type away as it goes over the speech in a loop pattern. I am frustrated by the APP store's automatic denial, will try to get in touch with the developper to explain my issue. I think it revolves around misleading representation. I hope the Develloper hears my plea with sympathy, I really just have one document I'm working on, and if empathetic, I will upgrade my review to Five Stars, as it's likely a great tool, if you have the slow down pedal and work as a scribe already.

The problem turned out to be that my foot controller had to be plugged into my Mac Pro USB port itself. It would and will not work from an external USB Hub, even a powered USB external hub, nor will it work from a splitter off my Mac Pro USB port. This is similiar to the external CD writer Apple sells which ONLY works plugged into the Mac USB itself. The strange thing is this foot pedal works just fine w a program called “f5” made in Europe. So I do not think iyt is a footpedal issue needing more power… but the Application itself designed to only work plugged into the port on the Mac computer. This is difficult as one must unplug something else to use this App/Footpedal. As far as the performance, now that I can get the app to work, I will have to rank it 3-4 stars - gave the benefit and made it 4. The Foot control mapping does not always do what you map it to do. For example, if I map both left and right switches to jup back or forward 5 seconds… the right one will work but the left just rewinds as long as you hold the switch (left pedal switch) down… even though you mapped it for a 5 sec jump. This is a bug and needs to be fixed. If the App is updated to allow pedals to run off powered hubs and the mapping is fixed for my “Infinity” pedal, I could give this a 5 star… let’s hope so as this is a good App now and could be a great App!
