will this work for Dragon Naturally Speaking, home version 12 ?

Don't know, haven't used it in that capacity. If the Dragon mic requires a true stereo input, it probably won't work because the usb adapter is mono and puts the same signal in the left and right inputs.

This thing is software agnostic, so there is no reason it would not work with DNS, just be sure you understand what it is for. For example, I purchased it because my work laptop has a sound card, but no external microphone port. Using this, I was able to use my headset, which has 2 connectors (Mic and speakers) via a USB port.

I cannot offer a definite answer because I have not tried it with any software of any type except on certain software on my own computer. Furthermore, I bought mine to use with my PS3 system and it works, though some claim it did not work for them. I'm sorry if this does not help, but it's the only answer I can offer.

Having this adapter does not change the way sound goes in or comes out of the computer. It's just one way to hook up a mic and headphone.

You should, provided the connections are right. The microphone can be positioned directly in front of one's mouth, so clarity can be assured. Keep in mind that with almost anyspeech recognition system there will be a learning period both on your part and the machine's part. Since it works with my Dragon(r) speech-ware, it should work with Win 8 just fine.

Yes and yes: though I haven't used it for Dragon, I use it for Google's speech service and it works VERY well!

From the CD that accompanies he package: "Dragon Naturally Speaking 11 - Recorder Edition." It is basically a modified version of the main V.11, that is downloaded to the computer. The main function of this version is for converting the MP3 oral dictation to words onto the computer. For more details, contact their website or customer service.

I am using the free microphone that comes with Dragon Home 12. The free one was better than Plantronics Audio 628 listed in Dragon website. Perhaps the quality of the free microphones have improved

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 I originally made the mistake of buying just the headset and not the Bluetooth dongle.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.

Dragon NaturallySpeaking home version 12.5 works with Windows 8 in general. What I mean by that is that if you're using Microsoft products for example, word, excel, Outlook, and PowerPoint. It seems to work fantastically. In all other cases you will simply have to use the dictation box which is a part of Dragon NaturallySpeaking that can be used when the program does not allow for direct dictation. On the other hand if you have purchased Dragon NaturallySpeaking premium 12.5. This is the professional version and it is specifically designed to work with Windows 8 directly without frequent use of the dictation box. Finally to make myself clear if you cannot directly dictate in application all you have to do is say "open dictation box". This is if you're just using the home version, and if you happen to own the professional version of Dragon you should be able to dictate directly to a Windows 8 application.

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

Don't know. Works well on phone but have been unable to get it to work with Dragon Naturally speaking.

Like most any bluetooth headset it should work with most any bluetooth adapter. If you can select any audio input from the Dragon software then that should work as well.

As long as it records in MP3, or WAV formats, Dragon NaturallySpeaking will be able to process the file. You will have to train the program at the minimum of 4 min. first. It works quite well for me but I usually dictate "live" as I am doing now to answer this question.

I purchased it to function with Dragon Speak software. It will do this if you have that software.

http://review.zdnet.com/Dragon_NaturallySpeaking_Preferred_9 /4505-3528_16-31988682.html?subj=fdba&part=rss&tag=MR_Software Dragon 9 runs only on Windows XP or 2000 SP4 or higher, so Mac users are out of luck, and it requires 512MB of RAM and 1GB of free hard drive space. (Attempting to run Dragon with less RAM will result in a sluggish system, as we discovered in our tests on several computers.) We tested the $149 Dragon NaturallySpeaking Preferred 9. Home users who don't need support for mobile devices can opt for the $99 Standard. Offices that want to run Dragon on a network should choose Professional. Legal and Medical editions are also available.

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.

Not sure how it works with Dragon, but I can say I use voice to text on my phone and it works great. I also use it with my PC's softphone and Lync Voice and in both cases it works fine.

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