Editing a Transcript

Once a transcript is completely created, you can edit it. The transcript portions already shown for EWC clips or very long clips stay in read-only mode until the entire transcribe operation successfully finishes.

Avid Ada Transcribe uses an Artificial Intelligence (AI) / Machine Learning (ML) model to produce transcripts and speaker labels from assets that include non-musical, spoken word. In terms of a newsroom workflow, this might be identified as a VO or "talking head". As with all AI/ML models, results might be incorrect as the model is predicting the output from the provided input. Therefore, the Transcript tab provides options to correct any of these errors.

For more information on these editing options, see the following topics:

c When you open a subclip in the Transcript tab and edit the transcript, you change the transcript of the master clip.

c All edits you make to a transcript will be overwritten if a re-transcribe job for the same audio track is triggered.
