Speech-to-text inside REAPER, now without Docker! ReaSpeech 1.0 uses ReaSpeech Lib for transcription and installs through ReaPack. Recognition runs in the background with progress reporting and cancellation.
The release’s ReaSpeech.lua asset is the bundled script for manual installation through REAPER’s Actions window. ReaImGui 0.10 or newer and a ReaSpeech Lib backend are still required. ReaPack is the recommended way to install and receive updates.
Upgrading from 0.7.x and other Docker-based versions
-
Close the old ReaSpeech window. Add the Team Audio repository to ReaPack:
https://github.com/TeamAudio/reascripts/raw/main/index.xml -
Install ReaSpeech, one ReaSpeech Lib backend, and ReaImGui 0.10 or newer. Restart REAPER to load the extension.
-
Run the ReaPack-installed ReaSpeech script from REAPER’s Actions window. Update any keyboard shortcuts and toolbar buttons to use this action. Your old downloaded script is a separate copy and still expects the Docker web service; installing through ReaPack does not update that copy.
-
Select a media item and click Transcribe Selected Items to check the new setup. Once it works, stop your old ReaSpeech Docker container and disable any automatic startup for it. You can then remove the old script’s action after updating your shortcuts.
Docker and the local web server are no longer required for ReaSpeech. There is no need to uninstall Docker or remove containers used by other tools.
Need the legacy version?
The older images remain available on Docker Hub, with setup instructions in the 0.7.3 documentation. We will continue hosting these images for a limited time, so please plan to move to the new version.
