Microcassette recorders are very wide spread, yet poor quality recording devices and are slowly becoming out of date, while digital voice recorders, which offer excellent quality of recording, a recording time of up to 22 hours and other advanced features, are fast becoming the recording tool of choice among business professionals and students.
Whether you need to record lectures, interviews, meetings or simply short notes and comments, digital voice recordings last longer than tape, can be easily retrieved, downloaded to your PC - and automatically converted to text by your outsourced transcribing pool of staff.
Do Digital Voice Recorders really make heavy dictation easier?
Digital Voice Recorders include ways for PC download. This allows you to transfer all of your voice recordings to your computer. After the transfer, you can delete the contents of your recorder and still be able to archive the recordings on your PC. By downloading recordings to your computer, you can e-mail them to a transcription service. These files are usually very small and can be easily sent over a company network or the Internet.
Can I store many recordings on a Digital Voice Recorder?
All digital recorders have folders to make it very easy to find recordings. Each folder can store up to 99 messages (recordings) or more. With multiple folders, you can use one to record all messages and another folder to keep important messages transferred from the first folder. Some recorders also have a "Schedule" folder, where you can store recordings by date for easy retrieval. This is very useful for expense reporting, schedule tracking and journal keeping.
