But on MacSpeech website, they have videos, which show you some basic stuff on using Dragon Dictate, and as of now, no video on how to make corrections. Nuance web site is so cluttered and disorganized that finding anything usable is very hard or impossible there.

On that Quickstart Guide they give a link to get User Manual at Nuance website where you cannot find the manual or any support for Dragon Dictate. It comes with a two page Quickstart Guide with few basic commands but does not explain you how to correct misrecognitions.

My MacBook Pro with 2.53 GHz processor and 4 Gb RAM system was crawling with spinning wheel on the screen for most of the time. Theoretically yes, but in practice it is unusably slow in Microsoft Word 2008. They claim that it can be used in Microsoft Word and other applications.

So far, it appears that it cannot be done.īy default, Dragon Dictate opens the TextEdit software where the dictation takes place. I still have not figured out how to add my custom vocabulary or transcribe recorded speech. At times you cannot even access the menu for Dragon Dictate without closing TextEdit. Sometimes, if you move the cursor while dictating, you start getting gibberish. Inability to make corrections easily makes this program unusable. There is no easy way to bring up the correction menu and teaching the program what you spoke. Making corrections is very tedious compared to the Dragon Naturally Speaking 11. Windows Dragon Naturally speaking has a much more intuitive and easily customizable user interface. The user interface is very unintuitive, not at like Mac programs. Particularly, it stumbles on closely sounding words like and & in 2, to, two and too of and off for and of etc. The speech recognition in Dragon Dictate 2.0 has improved and is far better than McSpeech but not even close to Dragon NaturallySpeaking Premium 11 the product is still cooking. The good thing is that you can configure for different accents and from my experience with Dragon Naturally Speaking, I know it improves the accuracy a lot. Even the built-in MacBook Pro microphone can be used but with worse recognition accuracy. But I regret spending that money, total waste.ĭragon Dictate comes in two discs, Application Disc and Data and includes wired Plantronics headset but I set it up to use with PLANTRONIC Calisto Headset with USB Dongle. Thinking that now Dragon Dictate has the speech engine of Dragon Naturally Speaking and must be better, I purchased the product Dragon Dictate at special introductory price from Nuance. Now the owners of Dragon Naturally Speaking, Nuance have bought MacSpeech product and they have given it the original name Dragon Dictate. MacSpeech Dictate was terrible and unusable. Mac has lacked a usable speech recognition software. But I missed the speech recognition software on Mac and keep on using Dragon Naturally Speaking on Windows under Boot Camp. Simplicity of using a Mac made me migrate from Windows to Mac side a few years ago. Each version of the Windows Dragon Naturally Speaking has improved the accuracy and it is almost 97% in Dragon 11. Janet Baker, the inventor of the speech recognition and founder of Dragon. At that time when you called technical support you could even talk to Dr. Then Dragon came out with Windows 95 product, also called Dragon Dictate, and then they changed it to Dragon Naturally Speaking in 1997 and I have been using it ever since, faithfully upgrading to each new version. 1995 was when I first started using IBM Via Voice and you had to speak each word distinctly. I come to the Mac version of speech recognition after having used speech recognition software in Windows for 15 years. This review is from: Dragon Dictate 2.0 Mac (Software)
