Phrases and sections you remove are shown in grey. They do not appear in search results but are still included in the downloadable transcript file.

NOTE:
If multiple participants spoke at the same time, you may still see their words in the transcript after you have removed that section from the recording. Where there is cross-talk like this, anything you cut out of the recording removes it for all participants.
