Hi,
I have a problem using my pedal with other programs, other than the company I work for. I have lost a lot of jobs, cause I can't get it to work with any other program. I have had suggestions made, but to no avail. Does anybody have the time to tell me what to do to solve this problem? I do have Escribe and that doesn't seem to matter. am I maybe bypassing a step that you need to download to use the pedal?
Thanks ...
Hello. I was wondering if anyone could give me advice on the best footpedal to buy. I am just getting back into transcription after being away from it for several years and I am not very technologically bright :-) I don't have any clients yet but I would like to have a wave pedal or foot pedal ready for whenever I do find a client. What would be the kind that would be the most versatile and go with most platforms/systems? I have Windows Vista. Any advice ...
In this physical examination, it sounds like it is being dictated, "Both upper and lower extremities with (s/l pedal) edema." That doesn't seem to make sense, but perhaps I'm wrong...what other word could he be saying instead of pedal? He pretty much mumbles his way right passed it. ...

Does anyone know how to use your foot pedal on the test rather than that silly F1 function key to start and stop the audio? I'm afraid I'll be here all night getting 5-6 words at a time with the "hand" method as opposed to the "foot" method, LOL!
Any suggestions greatly appreciated...Grazi! ...
I've got a USB-2 foot pedal here, brand new from Martel Direct, as part of an all-in-1 kit. Some job listings specify a USB-1 foot pedal; others just say USB foot pedal.

I have been doing transcription for 9 years. I have worked for 4 large companies and I had no trouble using the pedal for them. However, when I try to do a test, etc., for another company, the pedal will not work with the files that they send me. What is wrong?

Hello - I have a question - im trying to pick out an MT school and I have just talked to one of them that said they do not offer a footpedal because they believe the footpedal will be obsolete in a few years. Now I have never ever heard of this before but thought I would check with you all to see if anyone has ever heard this and what software programs actually allow you to work without a footpedal. TIA ...
I am starting my new job as an IC today, and the foot pedal given to me today has a phone line connection. I have a new Dell and no phone line connection possible on my PC. I do have a USB foot pedal. I am still installing software necessary for the program, so I have not been able to give it a test spin. Will my USB foot pedal work, or will I have to wait a week for the adapter to come in? ...
I was curious whether anyone on this board has had experience doing transcription without a foot pedal and using their mouse to control the transcription player. I recently tested at Wedmedx for QA and Rad jobs and they wouldn't let me use a foot pedal, I also couldn't slow it down. I missed passing the QA test by 2 points and the rad test by 6 points. A couple of the docs were ESL and the sound quality was not that great. I have years and years of transcription experience bu ...
