"Selects Makes Podcast Editing Fast with Good Editorial Suggestions and Transcript-Based Editing"

4.5/5

What do you like best about Selects?

Editing podcasts with Selects saves a ton of time. It analyzes my full recordings, categorizes the conversations by accurately interpreting the content, and makes solid editorial suggestions. It created a customized workflow that lets me do text-based editing from the full transcript, adding and removing sections with a simple click. This is essential, because I know nothing is missed or skipped-- if it's not included, I can see it and select it immediately. I keep complete control of the creative edit, but with the benefit of good suggestions, and lots of time-saving shortcuts in the prep. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Selects?

I've been using Selects instead of Premiere Assistant for several months, now. Currently the options for manual editing in the timeline are still a bit limited, and using chat to request a specific cut can take quite a while to process and implement. It's most notable when I want to move something to a different spot in the timeline-- that's really the only time it's an issue. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Selects solving and how is that benefiting you?

It's taking a 35 minute (on average) discussion and automatically trimming it down to 12-14 minutes, which is our target length. Dead spaces, repeats, mis-speaks are all removed, and more often than not the editorial choices are right in keeping with my directives. I created my own list and called it, the usual"-- now whenever I add a project I can just type "analyze and run the usual", and at least two hours of manual binning and cleanup is handled automatically, usually within about 15 minutes. 15 minutes I spend doing something else!
