Memos
Great ideas often come up when you’re reading and coding your data. Memos are the perfect place to keep them. Choose from 11 different icons to mark your memos. The unique MAXQDA memo manager and a lexical search function guarantee immediate access to every single memo at any time. Memos are also great for creating audit trails or paraphrasing passages into your own words.
Transcription & media analysis
Built-in tools for professional transcriptions of audio and video recordings. Of course, you can also import transcripts you’ve created in a separate program and link your transcripts to the original media file. Or code and analyze your media file as it is – even without transcribing it before.
