pull every instance of a word in a sequence into a stringout using Transcription

Question

Using Transcription, is there a way to pull every instance of a word in a sequence into a stringout? I can't find an easy way to do so.

Here’s a workflow you can use to isolate every instance of a specific word in your sequence using transcription:

Turn off Sequence > Selection Follows Playhead.
Make two copies of your original sequence.
In Copy 1:
- Open the Text panel and search for the word you want to isolate.
- Click Delete, then choose Lift and click Delete All. This will delete all the instances of your search word, leaving gaps where those clips were removed.
- Select all remaining clips in the timeline and Copy.
In Copy 2:
- Paste the copied clips into the timeline, overwriting the existing clips.
- Press Option/Alt + Delete to delete the selected clips and close the gaps.

This gives you a sequence containing only the clips where the searched word appears.
