The Real-time Speech Recognition feature is like using a USB microphone with Dragon NaturallySpeaking’s DragonPad. It features a text-based window in which a user can dictate and see their audio being transcribed while they speak. The window features playback controls, text editing facilities and a tool bar to save and export the dictation.

Performing Corrections

Correcting text is simple and uses the same procedure as performing correction within the
DragonPad.

  • Simply say “Select [word]” and the Realtime SR window will highlight the selected
    word.
  • To then correct the word, choose from the list of numbered items by saying “choose [number]” or say
    “Spell that” if the desired word does not appear in the list.
