  1. Choose File > Import > Transcriber File …

  2. Select the transcriber file (*.trs) and click on Open

  3. If the associated sound file cannot be found, a dialog will be shown asking you to locate it. When this request is cancelled, one can choose to open the annotation file without the sound, or to stop the whole import process.

The transcriber tiers will be mapped on the ELAN equivalents:
