Can this be used effectively with Dragon Naturally Speaking?

I found the Etymotic Erel-3 Black to be substandard and inadequate for quality listening. In fact I disliked them so much that I gave them to one of my children, under 10 years old.

Program is Dragon's Naturally Speaking. Once you perform the setup of reading a provided dialogue, the program "learns" you voice and can then transcribe your voice recordings to an editable text file. I read through my transcriptions and then edit to ensure proper punctuation. Still quicker than typing it all.

Hello, I"m currently using version 11 and from what Dragon Support team told me that version 11 has much more enhanced medical library, accent recognition etc. I would say version 11 is a safer bet. So far no issues, works great with Nuance PowerMic II

I use it with the dragon dictation program. I listen to an audio recording through the headset and speak simultaneously. I believe that is similar to what you do with Rosetta Stone.

Yes, this headset does work with Dragon NaturallySpeaking version 10. In fact I'm dictating this response using this headset and Dragon NaturallySpeaking version 10. You must buy the Plantronics Bluetooth enabled dongle and plug it into a USB port in order for it to work properly with your "Bluetooth enabled" laptop. I originally made the mistake of buying just the headset and not the Bluetooth dongle. The dongle is specifically adapted to work with the headset. (The bluetooth radio that came with your computer is not specifically designed to work with this headset) As far streaming music, I do not know the answer to that.

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.

Not certain, but I believe this item is English only. Dragon may have transcription software for other languages, but you should check the Dragon website. Good luck.

I use my headset for dictating correspondence using Dragon Naturally Speaking (now 12.5 preferred) where it works for a well. For my cell phone use I use the less expensive Jawbone headset. As a matter fact, I own and use four of them-all of which work very well. Hope this helps.

Dragon works well in Windows but is not compatible with Mac. I'm not sure if the version has been updated since I purchased it. The latest version is much better at distinguishing regional dialects / accents.

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.

Yes it does. It also improved the accuracy of my Dragon Naturally Speaking to about 98%. I use it all the time now.

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

No, there is NO voice recognition software that can do this at all well in 2012. You know how when you call an airline or bank and get into arguments with their voice recognition software that tries to listen to what you need? It's a long-term goal to develop reliable voice transcription that can listen to multiple people with multiple voicings and dialects speaking conversationally, but it's not even close to being implemented yet. Right now, the state of the art for voice recognition, which Dragon employs, is that each user develops his or her own personal user profile that gets more accurate the more it's used. Dragon can only use one user profile per session. The software has to be restarted to load a different user profile for a different speaker, so it's totally impractical in a meeting- or courtroom-type setting where several people may speak a sentence or two in turn. Dragon would do a very poor job in this setting without restarting it to change to a different user profile as the speaker changed--way too many errors to be useful. There is transcription hardware available elsewhere that tries to work around this using Dragon and Word. You need a translator, who re-dictates what he or she hears the meeting or courtroom participants say as they're speaking, much like a foreign translator at the United Nations. This person wears a device that looks like an oxygen mask (to focus the input to Dragon to that user profile, and also to reduce the noise in the meeting or courtroom from having another person speak simultaneously). The people who sell this hardware say that it works well and saves years of practice with a stenography machine such as the ones used by courtroom reporters. I haven't tried it, so I can't say if it's a good workaround, though I do agree that in theory, it sounds workable with a little practice on the part of the re-dictator.

I have no experience with Dragon or voice recognition software, sorry I can't help you there. I'll try testing it though.

My wife uses it to call me on Google talk so I'd say yes. Dragon is a Speech Recognition software. It does have 2 - 3.5 mm jacks, one for the mic, one for the headset. Hope this helps.

I've never used Dragon, so I really can't say. I looked through the manual, but nothing is mentioned on that subject. You can check their website at www.philips.com/welcome.

Yes. I use it with Dragon 12 Basic. It picks up dictation better than the mic that came with Dragon.
