Philips SpeechLive Now Features Cloud Transcription and Speech Recognition Service

Speech Processing Solutions, the leading professional dictation solutions company, has just launched their latest update of Philips SpeechLive cloud dictation workflow solution. The latest release now offers a fully-integrated speech recognition service - supporting 21 different languages - which turns audio recordings into text.

At NAMM 2015, Avid introduced Pro Tools First, a free version of Pro Tools, together with Pro Tools 12, introducing new flexible licensing, cloud collaboration, new marketplace services, and cloud publishing. The new colaboration platform extends to Sibelius, Avid’s notation software, now with cloud publishing.

Avid has embarked in a completely new product architecture for its audio, video and newsroom solutions, which basically requires that all users get connected with cloud services to take advantage of what the company calls Avid Everywhere. To encourage its user base to follow the company’s vision, Avid is promoting new licensing for Pro Tools, giving access to future cloud features and software upgrades through March 2016.
