Electronics Olympus DS-30 Digital Voice Recorder

Domain Name Com's - Electronics : Olympus DS-30 Digital Voice Recorder


  

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Easy to use, especially with the software
I haven't much to say except that I purchased this device specifically for qualitative research. It does exactly what I want it to do: record interviews clearly and easily despite background noise. It was a cinch to use right out of the box, and the software that it came with was also a breeze to install and use. I used the device and software for transcription playback (as slow as 25% of normal speed) and it was great as I was able to type fast enough to keep up with what was being said. Overall I'm very pleased and intend to keep this handy for all future qualitative research I will be doing.


Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - The best in it's class
I have tried many different digital voice recorders in the past years. I've had everything from $40.00 Panasonics to $200.00 Sony's and this Olympus beats them all. It's small and light weight. The sound quality is fantastic not only on the PC but on the device itself.

I've done tests with and without the stereo mic installed and the quality is the same. For me, recording in stereo is not necessary.

If I had to complain about anything, and I find that hard to do, I would have to say that I wish I could delete voice files on the fly while listening to them. With the Sony I had I could hit delete while the file was playing and then hit it again to delete. The Olympus requires me to stop the playback before it will delete. Small point I know but that's the worse I found with this super recorder.

One of the nice features I found is that I can load mp3 songs and audio books and listen to them with the included stereo ear buds. Nice feature.





Rating: 1 out of 5 stars - No backing up to correct dictation errors
Lots of fancy features that work fine.

But I dictate long professional letters. Of course I occasionally misspeak and need to back up (a few seconds or a couple minutes) to record over my mistake -- otherwise I waste my typist's time, and I have to pay her to type stuff then erase it.

This backup and re-record feature has been standard on $50 tape dictaphones for decades.

The DS-30 can not back up and record over mistakes. You said it, you're stuck with it. I confirmed this with Olympus tech support. They suggested I buy a $450 "professional" model instead.

This is not a machine for dictating professional letters.


Rating: 2 out of 5 stars - High Alert
The manual doesn't tell you this, but you have to reformat the recorder everytime you use it and download audio because it doesn't delete. It stays in the cache. This should be an essential part of the instruction book but it isn't. I learned after having problems and calling the techs.


Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Good Voice Recorder
The recorded voice quality is very good, but the record format is WMA. I prefer MP3 or wav formats and rechargeable batteries in it and the stand which other olympus digital voice recorders have. Anyway, the quality is pretty good!
