  • will be copied along with the media they are associated with as you publish and export your transcript

Adding a speaker

  • At the top of your transcript, select Change Speaker
  • Choose or create a speaker; you can:
  • Create a New speaker: Type their name and select Create speaker 'name'
  • Use an Existing Label: Select from your previously added speaker labels.

Changing a speaker

If you want to change an existing speaker label in your transcript:
