THIS ISSUE’S CHART examines mobile dictation machines, which are different animals from other handheld recording devices and smartphones. Like most handheld recorders and smartphones, though, the Grundig, Olympus, and Philips mobile dictation machines shown in the table have built-in speakers and microphones, in addition to 3.5-millimeter mini-ports for earphones and external microphones.
What separates dictation machines from handheld recorders and smartphones is support for the Digital Speech Standard Pro file format and speech-editing functions. Each of the dictation machines below record and encrypt high-quality speech in compressed DSS Pro files that can be easily transmitted. Each of the machines allow you to insert speech into an existing recording; mark a recording with indices for navigation and edit; insert and delete sections of speech; adjust playback speed and microphone sensitivity; and activate recording automatically by the sound of your voice. Author name and keywords are stored in file headers, which facilitate voice transcription by another staff person, such as an assistant.
