Product Description
Unlike conventional recorders, the DR-1000 comes with a USB connector that allows you to plug it directly into your PC's USB port and use it as a USB microphone. It's the ultimate in convenience - no worries about batteries, no need for data transfer, and virtually no limits to how much you can record*. It's the ideal choice for desktop dictation.
*Depending on how much space is available on your PC's hard disk
Specifically Designed for Dictation
Designed specifically for dictation, the DR-1000's snug-fit shape offers a secure, comfortable grip for fatigue-free recording even over an extended period. A large, easy-to-use pointing device gives you convenient control and quick access to any mode.
Higher Sound Quality
The DR-1000 boasts outstanding sound quality. A high-sensitivity microphone with a wide frequency response of 100 Hz to 15 kHz effectively covers the human vocal range, while a big built-in speaker reproduces sound with remarkable precision and clarity.
Customisable Key Assignment
You can assign specific functions to two dedicated buttons. Assigning frequently used functions lets you access them more quickly and easily at the touch of a button.
Customisable programme button functions:
- NEW: Starts new recording
- REW: Rewind
- FF: Fast-forward
- INDEX: Marks index points during playback/recording
- PRIORITY: Selects the file for higher priority
- INSERT/OVERWRITE: Alternates Insert and Overwrite mode
- DISABLE: Used when no function is assigned
- Application: Triggers any application software (Word, Excel, etc.) or other short-cut commands
Intuitive DSS Player Software
The DR-1000 comes with DSS Player, a versatile set of PC software tools that enable you to control voice recording with a click of your mouse, including recording start/stop and indexing. You can even trigger any desired application such as Microsoft(R) Word or Excel.
