The transcription editor allows audio editing using a transcript, so you can edit your audio using the words instead of the waveform. This makes it easier and faster to cut out edits and sections you don't want. Check out our other article to edit "traditionally" in Alitu.

1. Generate the transcript for the audio you are editing by toggling on the Audio Transcript button.

2. Drag the mouse over the text you want to remove and click "Cut this out".

3. You can click the undo/redo icons to remove or re-do the edits.

4. Click the 'Preview' button to preview the edits made. To start over, click the 'restore' button to remove the edit.

To locate a particular word or phrase within your audio clip, use the search transcript box at the bottom of the page and this will highlight the desired word or phrase and navigate you to the corresponding section within the text.

If you prefer you can expand the transcript to take advantage of a full page or shrink it again so you can still see the waveform audio while you edit.
We have given you the flexibility to chose or combine the editing methods.
