Fieldwork Recorder
A macOS application for structured lexical elicitation and field recording, with session management, item-level metadata, playback, re-recording, and export workflows designed for subsequent annotation and forced alignment.
Overview
What It Is For
Fieldwork Recorder supports structured lexical elicitation and audio collection by organizing sessions around word lists, speaker and item metadata, and repeatable recording workflows.
Motivation
Why It Exists
The tool is designed for fieldwork situations where consistency, local storage, and later annotation workflows matter. It keeps the recording process close to the elicitation structure rather than treating audio files as detached artifacts.
