I have not and can't imagine doing so as I end up correcting my dictation periodically....might work Ok though.

Haven't tried it yet, but came across this; based on the author's experience, it sounds like it worked great:http://www.dyslexic.com/dragon9-and-digital-recorder

Although I use this recorder with a Macbook Pro which is not compatible with the software interface, I do know others that have used it on a PC with Dragon. As long as you obtain a clean recording (one w/o a lot of background noise such as street sounds, music, etc) the transcription of the recording to text through Dragon is fairly accurate. It will be necessary to validate conversion especially if the recordings come from multiple voices / accents. And it will not be able to distinguish between differennt speakers so you will need to annotate the text with each speaker's name.

Sorry, I cannot recommend this device for Music. I would however, do a search for "USB digital recorders", and my choice would be a Sony USB recorder. With the Sony unit I purchased a year back, you can download files from Computer to Recorder and from Recorder to Computer, and with excellent sound (especially if you want a Music recording) quality.Nailbreak

I haven't tried it yet. But if my understanding is correct, it won't record live data to an external HDD... but you can archive recorded data from the internal HDD to and external storage device.

I am a little confused what you are trying to do, just dictate or to be able to transcribe it as well. The pedal is only for the transcription part of it and as far as the "hands free", that is confusing as well as you are dictating into the DS recorder itself. I wouldn't call it hands free? Feel free to write me back. I deal with both the dictation and transcription with Olympus.

The recording is done by a digital voice recorder, which is not sold with this unit. Purchasing AltoEdge Transcription will buy you a foot pedal, a pair of very good quality headsets and the software (Express Scribe) to allow you to transcribe any MP3/WAV file. Recording your voice file in MP3 format is done with a completely different item. My boss who is a lawyer uses a Philips Voice Tracer. Each digital voice recorder has its own capacity as to how long of a voice file/message it can record.

OFF TOPIC, but I have really gotten unexpected value from the voice recorder - I'm something of a community activist, attend board meetings etc. and find the recorder to be more than adequate to 'tape" meetings - I load the .wav files in Audacity and export as .mp3's - lose a little volume but very compact and portable after that.

Unfortunately i haven't been able to move or transfer recordings with this recorder after i have recorded them into a specific folder. Also there is no way of downloading or uploading the recordings onto a pc or other device because of no usb port. The way i have got around that problem was by having a seperate digital recorder, specifically the Rolland R05 digital recorder and i play the recordings from the Olympus recorder in order of how i want them stored or saved on my computer and then upload the recordings onto my computer using my R0-5 recorder. Hope this helps out a little bit.

I have never used the Audiobook. For my mp3 downloads I had to get a converter from CNET. I just looked, there are two Audio book converters based on category selection. I'm not sure this will help but I hope it does. Always scan what you download first.

It probably will Gabe. I see no reason why it wouldn't. You just need to have transcribing software on you computer.

Yes, I saw your question and decided to try it. You are able to scan to the USB, it allows you to save in PDF, JPG or TIF (and possible other) formats.

Pls dont buy....I've already wasted my investment. I contacted them about the weird transcription, they suggested me to contact software company, then I emailed them, did not get fruitful results. It totally waste of your resources. Better, buy cheap recorder.

Hi, will you can transcribe ANYTHING you want really. It doesn't have to be just bass lines. It does not come with any CDs. Good luck.

Added thought... I want to use Audacity software to help with the conversion. Again, any thoughts? Thanks!

I've only had to do this once...and it worked just fine.It will of course depend on your program the document is formatted in. But, we simply love this machine. The company we bought it from has always been happy to help me with any problems I encountered while learning to use it.

I received a Phillips digital recorder boxed with my version of Dragon speak 12.0. I have yet to use it, however and do not know if other digital recorders would be compatible but I assume so.
