Transcribing interviews is one of the most time-consuming tasks in qualitative research. Some have tried to bypass the problem by hiring external transcribers, which can be very expensive. This article introduces an alternative transcription technique which helps overcome these problems. This technique allows to generate transcripts fully offline (avoiding the security concerns that the rising number of cloud-based transcription platforms often raise), rapidly and at little to no cost which one only needs to revise whilst listening to interview recordings, which is why I call this the “listen and revise” technique.
