The DS-2700 is a digital dictation device that simplifies the process of recording notes, meetings, and interviews
It eliminates the need for tapes and offers easy editing with its slide-switch operation
Specifically tailored for small legal or business practices, it provides versatile recording options with built-in stereo microphones that offer both Dictation and Conference modes
You can also select from three microphone sensitivity options to further customize your recording experience
The device features low-noise omni-directional microphones with a built-in shock absorber to reduce handling noise
Additionally, the microphone housing incorporates a triple-layered pop-filter that blocks wind noise and plosives when speaking
For classic dictation, the main microphone records in an omni-directionality mode, while conference recording controls the directionality of the two microphones into a 90 degree layout, enabling high-quality stereo capture
The DS-2700 uses the digital speech standard (DSS) format, which promises effective compression without compromising quality in digital voice capture
It allows for quick file editing and uses meta information to facilitate collaboration and automatic processing
The PCM format, with its minimal compression, ensures exceptional quality and compatibility with a variety of playback tools
The widely utilized MP3 format serves as an excellent choice for storing consumer audio and enables easy transfer/playback of music on digital audio players
The device also includes the VCVA function, which efficiently manages memory by pausing recording during quiet intervals and automatically restarting when it detects sound exceeding a preset threshold
This feature optimizes playback efficiency and prolongs recording time
