att

Terminal-based audio-to-text converter

Project description

A terminal-based audio-to-text converter written in python, enabling you to convert .wav files or microphone input into text and save it to a file.

Requirements

To run the main python modules att_wav.py and mtt.py, you need to install the following packages:

• speech_recognition
• pydub
• time
• pyaudio

The installation method depends on the environment/ package manager you are using. The following examples show the installation of pydub for a standard python environment with pip and for an Anaconda environment via conda.

pip install pydub

conda install -c conda-forge pydub

Usage

To convert an audio file to text, start a terminal session, navigate to the location of the required module (e.g. att_wav.py) and start a python shell running the code by typing python att_wav.py.

Note that the att_wav.py can only handle .wav files due to the implementation of the underlying speech recognition API.

Hardware & Software Requirements

These programs can be run without much computing power. They can be executed on any modern device fullfilling minimal RAM/ CPU standards.
