Apparatus and method for providing voice recognition for multiple speakers

Producing a textual transcription of a communication conference call. A participant who is going to be absent from the conference can indicate to a conference bridge key words defining topics of interest, and the conference bridge will identify these topics based on the textual transcript that is being done in real time. When the participant returns to the conference call, they can then search the portion of an audio recording that they missed utilizing index marks defining the topics of interest that are based on the entered key words.
