Abstract
An Audio Editor operates with files capable of storing text and voice data in separate regions, and provides functions for entering data as voice data, and also for fully editing the entered voice data. Files can be uploaded from the Audio Editor to a PC application for converting the file entirely to text, providing a system wherein all variable entry and editing can be done verbally, and conversion to text left as a final chore. In an alternative embodiment the Audio Editor is implemented as a PC application wherein a user can enter and fully edit variable input as voice, and then communicate the resulting file to another for final conversion. In yet another embodiment the Audio Editor is implemented as additional functionality to a high-end word processor application. In further embodiments computerized natural data editors are provided for reviewing and editing natural data streams of all sorts, such as video streams, musical works, and the like.
