Caption Catcher
Load your song, use the original lyrics for the cleanest caption text, fine-tune word timing, and export editable captions.
1. Load your music
The file stays on your device. Speech recognition runs only after you start it. If you supply original lyrics, the aligned captions will use only those words.
Ready to process audio. On first use the recognition model must download.
Select audio, then paste the original lyrics for lyrics-only alignment or generate a transcription draft.
If recognition misses a chorus
Play to the missing section, enter the words, then insert them. You can adjust each timestamp afterward.
Lyrics-assisted alignment
Paste your original lyrics. Section labels such as [Chorus] are removed automatically. Your pasted lyrics are the source of truth. The recognizer estimates timing but cannot insert extra words into the assisted result. Check timing before exporting.
Load audio and paste original lyrics to keep generated words and symbols out of the final caption text.
2. Edit your lyrics
Each word has editable beginning and ending times. You can click a row to hear it.
3. Timing quality check
Check overlapping, missing, reversed and out-of-range word timestamps before export.
4. Export your subtitles
SRT works in most editors. LRC includes word timing. ASS enables caption display effects in compatible players.
Ready to edit.
Select a word in the table to edit it here. Drag the colored handles or enter exact times. Space plays or pauses; Alt + left/right moves between words.
Select a lyric row to begin editing.
Batch timing & lyric correction
Select an index range from the word list, shift its timestamps, or clean text. These edits update the project timeline and exports.
Select a range to begin.
Select a word by focusing its text or time field. Use the context loop to listen and correct alignment; automatic recognition and timing must still be manually checked.
