Not all Digital Voice Recorders are the same

Philips Recorder - As cassette based dictation and transcription devices are gradually phased out by manufactures all over the world, many professionals who have relied on tapes for years find themselves unsure of what type of recorder to change their old and worn out tape recorder with. Which has a multitude of choices for digital voice recorders, why go with a Philips or Olympus recorder? To the professional who creates formal dictations the answers are clear. A professional grade recorder allows the writer to efficiently manage her or his work flow with feature sets designed designed for repetitive creation of dictations. As an example, a consumer model recorder will not allow the author to rewind and insert or rewind and overwrite from the file. The Philips Recorder models 9600 and 9500 have this feature which allows for rewinding and inserting or overwriting within the file. Additional features are the capability to preset destination folders to the dictation once it is completed. Put simply, after the dictation is complete the author simply docks the recorder and the file is automatically taken from the recorder and delivered to the proper folder for transcription. This folder is typically a folder around the firm’s network set up specifically to get and send the dictations; the files can also be sent automatically via e-mail being an attachment. These features are section of the robust software included with professional Olympus recorders like the DS 5000 and the DS3400 and professional Philips recorders like the 9600 and 9500. When the file is sent to the transcriptionist it also contains a separate smaller file which includes information that allows for quick and efficient turnaround in the text file. This second smaller file contains preset information that features the author’s name, date and time the file was developed, priority indication, in addition to customizable fields for specific workflow needs. This Meta facts are used by the transcriptionist software to prepare and prioritize the dictations efficiently. Additionally, Olympus and Philips recorders are designed for the rigors of daily repetitive use and are fully backed by the one year warranty. An example will be the durable metallic case for the professional grade models. Infrequent use for recording lectures or general note using non professional Olympus recorder models will do the trick; however for the legal, medical or business professional, time is important and trying to use a consumer line are unable to only be frustrating but more often that not is also a waste of his / her valuable time. A professional who utilizes a recorder in their regular workflow should have the features and durability to satisfy his or her specific needs.
