NoteTaker v1.1.11
What's New
- Instant transcription — Transcripts are now available immediately when recording stops. The live SFSpeech text captured during recording is used directly, eliminating the long WhisperKit batch processing wait. WhisperKit is retained as an automatic fallback if SFSpeech was unavailable.
- No more truncated transcripts — Live text is accumulated into an append-only buffer of timestamped segments with session-reset detection. When SFSpeech's ~60-second recognition window expires, the current chunk is committed before a new session starts, so no text is ever lost.
- Mic echo cancellation — Enabled Apple's built-in voice processing (AEC) on the microphone input. Previously, the mic picked up speaker output that was already in the system audio capture, causing voices to appear twice in recordings. Ducking is disabled so system audio volume stays normal during recording.
- Version number in menu bar — The app version is now shown in the popover header next to the NoteTaker title.
