I have Nuance Dragon for speech recognition on my laptop, & I just found a feature to transcribe audio recordings into text. I use S-notes in my college lectures, & audio record, while I take notes. I was curious if there was a possible way to take the audio from each s-note page, copy it onto my computer in a recognizable format, & then transcribe it with Nuance Dragon, so I can add then e-mail the text to myself, and add it to those S-notes. Does anyone do this, or know a good way to do this/know how i can start searching for what it is that i need? Thank you!

Back in the days of WM 6.1 on my other device I had a built-in notes sound recorder application that recorded wav files. In the wm6.5 roms it no longer appears to be included.
Does anyone know of a small footprint wav similar to the old one where I can choose the bitrate?

Well off hand I've got nothing for you that does wavs but maybe you'd prefer something that does what you want but in mp3 on the fly, letting you adjust the bitrate and mono/stereo. Doesn't seem to let you record straight to wav but you can convert formats back and forth after a recording. Save a lot of space with mp3...
NoteM is the name. Give it a whirl and if it's not what you had in mind say so and I'll dig for something else.

I don't know how big the footprint is has and it isn't free but VITO AudioNotes does what you want plus in addition to helping you take your voice notes you can set it on voice activated mode to stash the phone somewhere and spy on people. $7
Now you may have zero interest in this but while we're on the subject you can use your phone as a multitrack recorder with MeteOR.
Microsoft Recite may be up your alley. IIRC it lets you take your voice notes and then you can later search for your old notes using your voice. That's about all I know about it. They discontinued it but I've still got a copy for you here.

Why is it when I say "listen to (artist)" it defaults to search youtube for (artist) and not playing it from my library?

It only searches for music using specific apps, like Pandora, Last.fm, etc. More info here:

If they wanted to add music search on the device, then they would have to know what music is available on the device, and this is much harder than just taking whatever you said after the phrase "listen to" and plugging it into an online music app.

So since august they still haven't come out with an update to the stock music player to allow me to say "listen to mgmt" and mgmt starts playing from my music library?

Right, and I wouldn't hold my breath for this change either. All of Google's voice recognition is done on the cloud, which means that they either need to send all of your music info up to the cloud in order to recognize your specific songs, artists, etc, which they could do, or they need to change strategies and work on an embedded recognizer to handle this all on the device (so they wouldn't need to send your music info to the cloud), which I'd bet they won't do.

I disagree they could do a text search of what they thought you said versus your local audio collection based on artist/song title tag. So the could would still be used for speech recognition but the text search could be done on the phone.

You're right, and to be honest, I'm kind of surprised someone hasn't written an Android app to do this using Android's voice recognition API. The only issue would be that for some songs/artists it wouldn't work as well as it could if it had access to the actual song titles and artist names for the music that was available on the device, but it would probably work good enough for most people.
On a related note, you'll notice that Google's built-in Voice Actions does not allow you to call contacts that are only on the device: you can only call or send text or whatever using contacts that are in your gmail contact list. Again, this is because Google has your gmail contact list on their servers, and if they wanted to do contact name recognition well using contacts on the device, then they would need to use an embedded recognizer or send the contact list to the cloud. As you'll notice, this is kind of a fundamental issue that pops up again and again when doing voice recognition in the cloud vs on the device.
Hi.
I spend a lot of time studying texts digital format cbr/cbz or pdf, but I don't know an application that allows me to draw a continuous underline from point to point, how vector format for example.
ezPDF has the possibility to freehand underline, but I don't like a lot, I would like to draw a straight line and that's without smearing... and for formats listed.
Do you know anything close to what is described?
I use Adilko for my books, is there an App that has audio that will read the books for you? The only ones I have seen ask you to download the audio book itself..not look for that...
If your books are in pdf format EzPdf can read the document outloud with a robotic voice lol. I'm not sure if you can change the voice though.
Thanks, I mostly use ePub... I wish there was a good text-to-speech reader out there... my wifes kindle has a great one

I have heard that moon reader (paid version) has a text to speech conversion. I have never tried it, but its out there.

Nice find, I just tried it and it worked on an epub the default voice is a lot better than that of ezpdf. I'm gonna try if I can download other tts voices
I need to make an Android app that can recognize certain sound files created by me, and do an action on recognition. So something similar to Shazam/Soundhound, but with my own sound files. Is there any API or SDK or something for this? I've been reading about Echoprint and Gracenote, but I still can't figure out how to do it. Can anyone provide any help, info, examples?
PS: To make it clear, i don't want voice recognition, or text-to-speech. My sound files can have music, distorted voice, effects etc. What I want is done with audio fingerprinting
PPS: the exact same thing was done in the Star Trek Into Darkness app, where you put your phone to listen to a trailer, and it does something on recognition
