Convert WMA to Text

WMA is the old Windows recording format, so a lot of archived voice recorders, lectures and dictation still live in .wma files that nothing modern wants to open. Upload the WMA and ScribeToAny transcribes it into clean, timestamped text you can search, edit and export — no need to convert it to MP3 first. Works on every plan.

Frequently asked questions

Do I have to convert WMA to MP3 first?

No. Upload the .wma directly and the transcription runs on it as it is — the conversion step you would otherwise do is unnecessary here.

Is it good for old dictation and lectures?

Yes. Long recordings are fine, and speaker detection splits a multi-person recording into a readable conversation. Clear audio transcribes best; a quick proofread in the editor cleans up anything the recording muddied.

What can I export?

TXT, SRT, VTT, TSV, CSV, JSON, PDF and DOCX — a plain document for reading, timestamped subtitles for video, or PDF/DOCX for a formal record.
