Will this pedal work with Express Scribe Free (not Express Scribe Pro)?

Yes, I have been using it with Express Scribe Free and have not had any problems

I use it for a purchased copy of Express Scribe... It would most likely work for basic versions as the software probably just has less features if it's a free version.

I use this pedal with Express Scribe Free and it works beautifully. Also works with Wave Pad Sound Editor (also free,) which I feel works much better than Express.

Only through a trial. I use For The Record, they have a good program, 100% free.

Better yet sign up for thegearpage.net if you aren't and ask the question in the Effects & Pedals thread -- those guys have every pedal known on earth and someone will answer you quick. It's free. I'd do this before ANYTHING else.

Yes you can just use the program that comes with it. All you need to do is have the pedal set to C and below that are checkboxes for Shift / Ctrl / Alt so you can make copying and pasting easy.

This pedal is great. I use it with Express Scribe from NCH, not Media Player. NCH has a free version of Express Scribe but I wound up paying about $38 (a one-time expense) for the professional version. It was a great investment and using my Vpedal with it was easy. Not sure how to use Windows Media with pedal though.

No Idea but Saitek doesn't support it, requirements are here: http://www.saitek.com/uk/prod/pedals.html

I have this as well and use Express Scribe with no issues. :0/ I'm sure you've checked this already, but just as a point of troubleshooting, have you tried going into Options --> Controller in Express Scribe to ensure it's located the device? I know mine gets a bit finicky if the USB gets unplugged, and I often have to reset the controller when this occurs.

Yes! But you'll need a usb/midi interface and you need to assign the pedals as hotkeys for whatever you want it to do. I haven't tried it with GarageBand but I know it works with logic

I have the free Express Scribe program and it works with it to some degree, but not with all the functions. I do use it successfully with WavPlayer, but this may be a paid program. I am not sure as it was provided by one of my companies.

I use a wavplayer program. It is not free. I had to pay for it. I also use Express dictate V 5.18.www.nch.com.au/express to record regular tapes onto my computer and then transcribe using this foot pedal.

It has been a long time since I used Express Scribe but it did work with my USB-1foot pedal. I don't remember any details but just that it did work. Hopefully by now you have it working for you.

I agree with Nancy. A pedal gives you hands free transcription. It doesn't do much for dictation. You could use a program like Express Dictate for hands free dictation, but you would need a headset and still have to start a dictation by pressing record.

Honestly, I don't know. It wouldn't work with my Mac, so I wasn't able to use it at all. I did finally get one that does work with Express Scribe -- it is the Infinity Series IN-USB-1 and IN-USB-2.

Hello Sebas. It works fine with the expression pedal. I've already had a whammy and I do prefer the PS-6 sound.

I bought it for use on a mac, which despite some reports doesn't really work well with osx. The pedal defaults to 3 keyboard keys (a,s,and d I think), and relies on a keyboard mapping utility to customize. If you can find the software download I would suggest trying that w/ a regular keyboard. If the software remaps those to alt/control properly then you are probably good to buy the pedal. This is a very generic product and I was not able to find much support.edit: post deleted and re-posted to remove my employer name.

I have used this foot pedal in the past with Express Scribe and it worked fine.

I also have this foot pedal and use it with Express Scribe daily. It will not work until you initialize it. You have to go to the pull down menu, Options, and pick Controller and run the controller wizard. It asks you to tap the left center and right pedals and then finish and it works as others say.

I have the double pedal which is attached to the transmitter. I bought this single pedal as a backup because in performance I usually configure things so that I only need to advance the pages.
