Hi everyone,
I’m excited to announce the release of WhisperCat v1.4.0, an open-source audio capture, transcription, and post-processing application.
Heres the link:
What’s new?
- Open Web UI Support: WhisperCat now integrates with Open Web UI— This means you can process your recordings using free, open-source models for transcription!
- FasterWhisper Server Integration: The v1.3.0 release introduced support for FasterWhisper Server, a free open source Text to Speech model.
- Enhanced Global Hotkeys & Background Mode: Enjoy customizable hotkeys for starting/stopping recordings and an improved system tray minimization to keep WhisperCat running quietly in the background.
- Microphone Testing & Notifications: Verify your microphone before recording with our test functionality and receive on-screen notifications for important events or errors.
- Refined GUI & Dark Mode Support: The interface has been polished with better settings management and full dark mode support.
I’d love to hear what you think, so please feel free to share your feedback and suggestions.
