'Soundbite' Dialogue Search For Apple Final Cut Pro

Boris FX and Nexidia will join forces to launch an innovative piece of software, Boris Soundbite.
Boris Soundbite is a fast and accurate tool to locate footage by finding any word or phrase spoken in multimedia files.
Nexidia’s, patented dialogue search technology, has already received accolades from DV Magazine, Post Magazine and Creative COW.
With the new Boris Soundbite, video editors, producers, and journalists will be able to instantly play all occurrences of a spoken phrase in their media, then insert the perfect take into their Final Cut Pro project, organize clips around keywords, and even find replacement words for problematic audio.
Some of the key features of the software are that it can combine multiple phrases and standard Final Cut Pro metadata terms to search hundreds of hours of media in just seconds. In addition Soundbite will search and play virtually any media file supported in QuickTime.
Boris soundbite supports multiple languages and dialects including English, Spanish, French, German, Italian, and Dutch.
Several features previously unavailable to Final Cut Pro users are also to be made available through the software.
For example Soundbite supports Mac OS X 10.5.8 or later and presents users with a modernised user interface that facilitates fast, efficient operation from a single window.
"Leading editors already know that dialogue search saves time, reduces transcription costs, and lets them be more creative," said Drew Lanham, SVP/GM of Media for Nexidia. "By leveraging the development power and global reach of Boris FX, we’ll be able to bring a whole new generation of dialogue search to the Final Cut Pro community."
