Which method of court reporting involves transcription through audio technology?

The method of court reporting that involves transcription through audio technology is the Digital Court Reporter. This approach utilizes advanced audio recording technology to capture proceedings. A digital court reporter records the audio of the sessions, which can later be transcribed into text by either the reporter or a transcription service. This method is effective for ensuring accurate record-keeping and provides a reliable way to revisit the recorded audio if further clarification is needed.

In contrast, the Stenographic Reporter relies on a shorthand machine to record the spoken word in real time, while the Voice Writer uses a speech recognition process where the reporter speaks directly into a voice recognition software, typically not utilizing standard audio recording. The Court Monitor generally oversees court proceedings and captures notes or summaries of discussions rather than full verbatim transcripts, making them distinct from the digital methods used in a Digital Court Reporting system.
