Pro Tools Speech To Text lets you transcribe dialogue and vocals directly in your session, search for any word or phrase, and make audio selections straight from the text. In this video, Paul from Production Expert walks through every feature of the Speech To Text engine – from initial setup to advanced clip separation – so you can get the most out of it in your sessions.
Here's what's covered:
— How to install the Speech To Text Engine from Avid Link
— Transcribing individual clips via right-click
— The Transcription Lane and Track Transcript view
— Using the Transcript window: Timeline and Files tabs
— Searching for words, making selections, and copy-pasting audio from text
— Keep Track Transcribed: auto-transcribing new recordings
— Why transcriptions survive AudioSuite renders and track commits
— Transcription Settings: language hints, stereo options, field recorder channels, and pause detection
— Separating clips by word, sentence, or speaker
The Speech To Text feature was introduced in Pro Tools 2025.6 and has been expanded in subsequent releases. It's available in Pro Tools Studio and Ultimate. Whether you're editing voiceovers, long-form dialogue, or comping vocals, this is one of the most practical tools Avid has added in years.
