I have been transcribing audio and video files for over six years now without the use of this foot pedal. However, a co-worker recommended this pedal to me so I thought I'd give it a shot. WOW! What a difference. It makes transcription SO much easier and faster. I love the fact that you can set it (through the available software) to back up and/or fast forward at whatever speed you like because it is way more precise than having to drag and drop the status bar on a normal audio or video player and try and get it to the exact spot you need it. So far I am completely amazed with this product and wish I would have bought one years ago. It has been able to play every type of audio and video file I've tried, and is as simple as just dragging and dropping the file into the software. Also very easy to hookup and begin using. One word of caution for those not familiar with this pedal - this pedal does not come with any software. All you get when you order is the pedal itself. The software is separate. Not a big deal for me because I had already been told that by the person who recommended it to me. But just FYI for the rest of you considering this purchase. I've heard you can get a free software trial version called "Express Scribe Free", but for some reason my pedal said it wasn't compatible with the free version of this software. (I never personally tried it. I just took their word for it.) That wasn't a problem for me because I already knew I wanted the full version of this software (Express Scribe Pro), so I just bought that online and downloaded it right to my computer and immediately got to work. (I love that software program too if you're looking for a recommendation for software. It works very well with this pedal.)

(I bought my foot pedal from AAADictation.) I am extremely pleased with the Infinity USB Digital Foot Pedal. I would not transcribe without it. As one reviewer stated you can choose to not use the pedal and just use the short cut keys provided by the Express Scribe (ES) software (Express Scribe is not included with the Infinity pedal; some pedals do include the ES but you have to pay extra for it anyway). I had to tough it out and used just the ES for a couple of days because the pedal stopped working. Before deciding that my pedal was defective I decided to read the negative reviews given to this pedal and do some research online & outside of Amazon.com. The problem was not the Infinity pedal. This is how I solved the problem that got my hardware to work again: 1. Install Express Scribe if you haven't so far (you can get the free version for a few days. I have about 20 interviews to transcribe and ended up buying the software. ES makes transcribing a heavenly experience.) 2. Plug the Infinity foot pedal. If it does not start automatically, then: 3. Click on 'Options' on your downloaded Express Scribe (transcription software). Choose the 'Control' tab key. Make sure that the box for 'Enable foot pedal controller' has a check mark. 4. Still on that very same page ('Control' tab key) you will see the 'Controller Set Up Wizard' bar. Click on that bar. A new box will open. Read it and click on 'Next. Do the same for the next two additional windows that will open for you. Finally, click on the 'Finish' for the last box. 5. Test your Infinity pedal. It should work. I had to put some time into figuring this out but I am glad I did not just assume the product was defective. The Infinity Foot Pedal together with the Express Scribe Pro will make your life immensely much pleasant. It is HELL transcribing without this hardware & software. Especially if you have a lot of transcribing to do or an impending and unmovable deadline. In addition, customer service is wonderful. I wanted my foot pedal in by a specific day and paid additional charges for that. I did not get my foot pedal on the day I expected I would. When I expressed my disappointment, the company promptly and professionally apologized and reimbursed me the 8.99 for express shipping. In additional, they extended (not at my request) my Amazon.com Prime account. I remain a very happy transcriber and customer. I really hope this was helpful to you. I hate to see others frustrated over something that can be solved easily. I tried to be as accurate as possible in my explanation & instructions and will look at this again later just to be sure that it is clear. Right now, my homework is screaming for my attention. Got to run. Happy transcribing!

I do a lot of discourse analysis use NCH Express Scribe to transcribe the initial transcripts out. I use SoundForge to get the times, but that's besides the point... Because the population I study consists of non-native English speakers, the initial transcription is a major task. I initially thought I'd save money and use customized keyboard shortcuts. I'm cheap like that. I have to transcribe within a certain time frame. I quickly found out that keyboard shortcuts take too much time because I have to rewind more often than not to catch what a person is saying. For a 60-minute transcription, it took me something like 10 hours total time to transcribe. And I might be underestimating. It seemed like forever. The time it takes to key in a rewind on the keyboard adds up! So,I thought I'd try out this Infinity foot pedal since it interfaces directly with Express Scribe. Let me just say - WOW! What a difference it makes! I initially thought 3 pedals would be insufficient, but this is perfect. Holding my foot on the middle pedal plays the file. Releasing the pedal stops play. The right pedal rewinds much better than the keyboard ever did. I can step on the right pedal while I have the middle pressed down and rewind if I don't catch what someone is saying. The left pedal fast-forwards by default, but I don't need to really do that. Transcription has never been easier for me. Windows 7 Pro 64-bit recognized it immediately. You can customize the foot pedals. I understand that people have to recustomize each time they plug the pedal in, but that doesn't affect me since I use the default setup. Overall, this is worth its weight in gold. (And the thing is a little heavy, so that's a lot of gold!). All I can say is that if you're wondering if you will benefit from this, buy it. I'm sure you'll benefit. For under $60, you really can't go wrong. I ordered mine through the AltoEddge reseller. I ordered it yesterday and received it today. Granted, they are in NJ and I am in upstate NY (Albany), but they shipped it out the same day. I beat the UPS estimate by 10 days. I paid for shipping, but I expected that.

The Infinity USB Digital Foot Control (IN-USB2) has been a game-changer for my transcription workflow. It’s incredibly responsive and works seamlessly with most transcription software. The plug-and-play setup is quick and easy—just connect it via USB and you're ready to go without needing any drivers. The pedal has a solid, durable feel and stays in place during use, thanks to its anti-slip base. The three-pedal design (play, rewind, fast-forward) is intuitive and allows for hands-free control, which helps boost efficiency and reduce strain during long typing sessions. Whether you're a professional transcriptionist or just starting out, the IN-USB2 is a reliable and essential tool. Highly recommended for anyone looking to streamline their transcription process!

Very good for court transcription.

I was a little worried that there was 50% chance the device would not work with the free version of Express Scribe Transcription Software, due to the product statement "it is not compatible with the Free version of Express Scribe", and some of the buyer posts that it had not worked for them - while other posts claimed that it did work. Taking a chance, I purchased the Infinity USB Digital Foot Control with USB plug. It does work, and very well! Windows Media Player has worked fairly well for me, for years, and had only needed to transcribe files from time to time. However, my need to transcribe files has increased, so I went looking online for software. Express Scribe Transcription Software came up first on my search list, so I decided to try the free version. It worked very well! Little did I know what I was missing. While reading through the help files I quickly learned that you could purchase a foot pedal to use with the software. GREAT! The Infinity USB Digital Foot Control with USB plug was a very easy setup, and the Express Scribe (free) software noticed it immediately. A great pairing! This was a great price, and available via Amazon Prime. I've used it for a couple of hours now, and my transcription time has increased dramatically - having the perfect tools. You will likely enjoy this Infinity USB Digital Foot Control with USB plug as well. Especially if you are using Express Scribe Transcription Software, the Pro or Free version.

I had read pretty good reviews about the Infinity USB Digital Foot Control with Computer plug (IN-USB2) so I had high expectations going into it. But I'm not a technical writer and just needed the ability to transcribe notes from a lot of recorded interviews so I didn't have a lot of experience of how this would work. I read an internet review that said this tool would not work with the free version of Express Scribe but it does! Downloaded Express Scribe and it will translate the more common formats (i.e. WMA, MP3, etc.). You do need the full version for more proprietary formats. But if you are using a cheap digital recorder like I am, you should be fine. There's a connection wizard included in Express Scribe which automatically detected my foot pedal and I was off to the races. Being able to control the audio playback without removing my hands from the keyboard (and alt-tab between Word and Media Player) made this 3x faster. So for about $50, I got two weeks of my life back. Great product, highly recommended.
