All the tools you need to write up your research!
English
10% off transcription of seminars, Q&A sessions, interviews, oral examination answers, etc.
Our transcription service is designed to provide you with a written record of important oral presentations, interviews, meetings and so forth. From an audio recording or video recording, we can record in writing what was said. Our service involves editing the recorded speech to remove fillers such as “um” and “er” and to make the speech flow by cleaning up partial sentences and any grammatically incorrect sentences.
We can provide this service for ENGLISH and JAPANESE content. You may also combine this service with our other services; for example, once we have transcribed and cleaned up the content, we can translate the text into another language as necessary.
It’s a great way to ensure that important content is easily available in a form that can be shared by many people.

Human activities are a major source of sound under water and such sound could be negatively affecting marine mammals. Research into the effect of sound on the behavior of marine mammals is aimed at understanding how and why marine mammals respond to various sound stimuli. Researchers have found that killer whales and pilot whales change the calls they make when responding to sonar sound. They believe that with greater knowledge about the sounds these animals make, regulations can be created to mitigate the impacts of the sound created by humans on marine life.
Researchers are now asking for the public’s help in classifying the calls of killer whales and pilot whales into distinct categories. Through the Whale Song Project, you can help by matching similar sounding whale calls. The results obtained will help specialists to refine the categories of calls used and discover patterns in the calls. The project is part of the Zooniverse network of projects (see our earlier posts on Zoo Galaxy and Ancient Lives, other Zooniverse projects).

For all orders received during November, we are offering a great price reduction of 15% off audio recordings made by a native speaker of your oral presentations.
If you don’t have a native English-speaking friend or colleague available to help you practice your oral presentation, our native speaking staff will record your speech so that you can listen to the pronunciation, rhythm and intonation, and then practice yourself. You can choose from three different speeds.
