Here's my accent sample. In the audio file, I'm reading the Rainbow Passage. If someone could provide an IPA transcription for me, I would really appreciate that.

Accent and IPA
I transcribed a reading of the Rainbow Passage for someone here a few weeks ago, and even for someone who's quite familiar with IPA like me, I found it *incredibly* time-consuming to do a decent narrow transcription of it. (This is compounded by the fact that I have to either copy and paste or use a converter tool to get IPA symbols.)
But from listening to it, you seem to be a non-native speaker, but you do a very good General American; the most salient feature seems to be that you generally replace the interdental fricatives [θ], [ð] with [t], [d].

Thanks Lazar, I understand that it is time consuming. Nevertheless, I appreciate your response.
I'll try to transcribe it myself.

Is there no computer program that can translate directly from sound file to IPA?
