Are your wrists giving you problems?
Thinking you need to get out and walk more?
But still have to write all those books??
Then this episode is for you…
We talk to dictation expert Scott Baker about all aspects of dictation, from the right software to get, the products and technical knowledge you need to get started, and how to train that dragon to within an inch of its life!!
Scott talks to us about everything from how to set up the dictation equipment correctly, the different ways you can dictate and how to make it as accurate as possible.
He’s hugely knowledgeable, and is very generous with his information, so if you’ve ever wondered about dictation, or are considering getting it set up (or even tried and couldn’t get it to work properly!) then make sure you listen to this episode!

Great interview with Scott. Not sure how I’ll go, but going to give dictation a good crack. I’ve tried it a couple of times with apps on my phone and then emailing to me. The punctuation is the killer. So will practice a bit more. Have bought Scott’s books, it’s raining, so what else can I possibly do but give it a go.
Good for you Carron. Let us know how it goes!
Great informal interview.
It helped me to better understand my Dragon and % of error.
Please help I have a iMac computer I brought Scott’s books but I noticed it’s saying dragon dictation does not work on iMac or apple computers no more why?
Hi Brian, unfortunately Nuance no longer make Dragon for Mac – you can read their announcement here Highly recommend you join the Dragon Riders Authors Dictating facebook group where there is a wealth of information for Mac users on workarounds / alternatives.
Awesome, glad you found it useful Wes
