IPAtranscriptor is a tool for creating narrow phonetic transcriptions. As it connects to the computer's default text-to-speech engine on demand, the program can be used not only by sighted but also by partially sighted and blind individuals. Sighted users can choose whether they prefer the mouse or the keyboard as their input device. In contrast to other programs, the full set of symbols and diacritics of the International Phonetic Alphabet (IPA) is implemented and users can produce very narrow phonetic transcriptions as they can insert up to three diacritics above and three diacritics below each IPA symbol to modify it. Furthermore, the program can facilitate the collaboration between blind and sighted phoneticians (or students of linguistics in general) since they can easily exchange their phonetic transcriptions. A conversion of the transcriptions is not necessary as all transcribers can use the same system regardless of their visual abilities. IPAtranscriptor is freely available online and is believed to be the first audio-based program for narrow phonetic transcription that can be used by blind and sighted phoneticians.

IPAtranscriptor：一个 Python 程序，用于盲人和有视力的语言学家的窄语音转录

国际音标转录器是一种用于创建窄音标的工具。由于它按需连接到计算机的默认文本到语音引擎，因此该程序不仅可以供视力正常的人使用，也可以供有视力障碍的人和盲人使用。有视力的用户可以选择他们更喜欢鼠标还是键盘作为输入设备。与其他程序相比，实现了国际音标 (IPA) 的全套符号和变音符号，用户可以生成非常窄的音标，因为他们可以在每个 IPA 符号上方插入最多三个变音符号，在每个 IPA 符号下方插入三个变音符号来修改它. 此外，该程序可以促进盲人和有视力的语音学家（​​或一般的语言学学生）之间的协作，因为他们可以轻松地交换他们的语音转录。国际音标转录器可在线免费获得，并且被认为是第一个基于音频的窄语音转录程序，可供盲人和有视力的语音学家使用。
