Olympus WS-400SDNS Digital Voice Recorder

OVERVIEW:

On-the-go digital audio recording with on-the-mark voice activation built in and industry-leading speech-to-text software included.

Let this sleek, stylish recorder go the distance for you by providing 272 hours of superior stereo sound recording, with features that maximize your ability to organize files and transfer them to your PC—without even using a USB cable. Comes with a state-of-the-art noise cancellation microphone, too! Recording and downloading crisp digital files has never been easier.

The Perfect Transcribing Solution.
Advanced ‘Dragon Naturally Speaking’ speech recognition software from Nuance, included with the recorder, lets you convert dictation, notes, lectures and other audio directly into text, even while you’re on the move. The bundled "Dragon NaturallySpeaking 10 Recorder Edition" voice recognition software allows you to transcribe recorded voice files on to your PC. To upgrade to Dragon NaturallySpeaking 10 Preferred, please use the enclosed coupon.

Recording Time to Spare — 272 Hours to be Exact
This digital recorder has 1GB of internal memory, which translates to 272 hours of recording time, enabling you to store as many notes, lectures, interviews and conversations as you need to — with extra room for documents.

Direct Connect to your Computer
Quick and easy! Just plug the recorder right into your PC to transfer all files. This USB Direct PC link eliminates the need for cables and extra work to get the job done.

The Top Recording Standard
That would be WMA—Windows Media Audio—which is one of the most popular and functional recording formats in the world of portable digital recording.

Noise Cancellation Microphone
The unit also comes with our state-of-the-art ME-12 microphone, noted for its tremendous ability to capture high-quality audio with no extraneous sounds.

Voice Activation System
Since the WS-400S DNS can be set to record only when the microphone senses sound, recording time and memory can effectively be extended.
