I play &amp; make games using my Dragon Naturally Speaking program for dictation to create story and game text. Will it pass the setup quality test?

I honestly am not sure how that would work, especially if you are using the dragon headset... If the Dragon software is built-in into your computer's microphone, then maybe with some tinkering it may work; but I'm not sure it would because Dragon as I have seen uses a headset by itself.... It may be really beneficial to get in contact with Dragon, and see if they can work something out for you... If you just want to use the Creative Sound headset by itself outside of Dragon, it should work like a charm! It basically downloads by itself when you use the THX USB. I had to go to the main site to find the control panel, but once I did I haven't had any hiccups (truly a small hiccup, nothing major) since and that's been nearly 6 months. It's a really good headset in my opinion. I hope this helps some.

Yes. I have used it with Dragon 12. Things you can check: 1. In the Windows Control Panel, click System &gt; Device Manager &gt; Sound, video and game controllers. Then double-click on Plantronics Wireless Audio. Check to see if the device status says "This device is working properly." 2. In the control panel open Sound. Click on the Recording tab. The Plantronics wireless audio should be listed as a microphone and as default and have a green check mark. If it does not, select it and set it as default. If it shows as not plugged in, check your connections. 3. On the DragonBar, click Profile &gt; Add dictation source to current User Profile... In the window that opens, under Dictation Source: click the down arrow and select your Plantronics headset from the list. Hope this helps

Hello Carlos, This program is used by my wife for her interpretation business, so I do not use it personally. I can tell you that you can set up two profiles within it, one Spanish and one English, and use the program either way. Once you have trained the program to your voice and way of speaking, it is very accurate. About the only thing that will make the program lose accuracy is when there are other noises in the room. If you have a good microphone and a quiet environment, the program is almost perfect, and making corrections is easy too. Be sure that you have enough memory in RAM, and that you have enough hard disc space available too. These files can get pretty big, and if you are running low on either memory, the program will begin to do strange things. I upgraded my wife's computer so that she wouldn't have to worry about this for a while, and she hasn't had any issues with the program. I highly recommend it!

Should work fine. For the cost I say roll the dice. Programs in like 30 seconds! Good luck.

Hi; At this time Dragon Dictate does not make dictation software in Spanish. In January 2013 look for possible upgrades then. The only thing available at present would be windows dictation scratch Pad, this program does process Spanish-language among others.

I use it for Dragon dictation. The mic is great for that purpose, but it's sensitive to external sound sources so I'm not sure it would work with speakers your playing game audio. If you do try it, play around with volume settings to get it right as sometimes too high or low volume affects recognition of commands.

I have not tried it with any of the Dragon's voice dictation products myself. I would strongly suggest going to a store having a look or checking with someone who has tried it. What I do know is that some of these devices can be very particular about co-operating with other devices. I've struggled with a few of them already, and I also currently having intermittent timeouts on this one with Cisco IP Communicator Softphone software.

You should find it perfect. I use it for Dragon Dictate with better recognition than any other mike before.

This particular version of Dragon Naturally Speaking is designed to install on MS Windows. You can probably use your Android device to record an audio file to upload to your Windows based PC, like a dictation device.

No. It is an interactive game-style platform. There are letter-sound and spelling games (thus the letter keys) but no program to compose original text that I am aware of.

My experience dictates : ) success when using Plantronics DSP-V3. I have used two others with varying success however it may also depend on your voice, diction, inflection, accent, and training the program to understand YOU. Quite honestly I find the Apple voice recognition software included with Mountain Lion and I presume Mavericks to work equally as well as Dragon Dictate. Apple provides far superior customer service. Dragon virtually none! Save a couple hundred bucks with less frustration.

This microphone works with all versions of Dragon NaturallySpeaking as well as Mac Dictate. It serves well as a starter microphone.KnowBrainer, Inc.

Yes the Nuance Dragon Software will actually transcribe for you. It works both live and off recordings. The program has difficulty with scientific or specialized words, and constantly messes up punctuation, but if the choice is between manual transcription and using Dragon you will come out WAY ahead using the software.

Its been a while since I purchased this great mic but I don't remember any additional software coming with the unit. I discovered that when I used this microphone I could make speech recognition software like 'Dragon Naturally Speaking' function as advertised. Previously I gave up trying to use the app because it just didn't function properly and was very frustrating. I use 'Gold Wave' for all my sound editing work; I'm pretty sure there's a freeware version, stripped own of course, but I paid the $50 for the license to use the 'full boat' version. Its extremely versatile and doesn't really have much of a learning curve for its basic functions.

I haven't reviewed Dragon Dictate but I absolutely LOVE it. It's increased my content production ability 3-fold... Works great out of the box though I do recommend you go through the tutorials so that it works even better. I highly recommend.

Dragon Assistant is more accurate and fun than than the native Win 8.1 speech recognition software but the version I was using when I uninstalled it would only take about one sentence at a time and had to be restarted after every sentence so it was only usable for texting. The native Win 8.1 Speech recognition software is in my opinion still a bare bones Beta product, so I will be purchasing Dragon 12.5. I hope Nuance finally delivers on the promise, this'll be the third or fourth purchase of a dragon product. Anybody want a free copy of Dragon 10 that was never satisfactory?

It works well with Dragon. I don't have legal version. Quality mic but don't drop it. Broke first time I dropped it. It was a fall any cell phone would have survived.
