Main Features
● The DS-2000 digital voice recorder stores
highly compressed DSS audio files on
SmartMedia cards.
● The DS-2000 supports two recording
modes: SP (Standard Playback) mode and
LP (Long Playback) mode (☞ P.22). The
included 16MB SmartMedia card records
approximately 2 hours and 35 minutes* in
SP mode and approximately 5 hours and
30 minutes* in LP mode. An optional 128MB
SmartMedia card can hold up to 44 hours
and 40 minutes* of recordings.
● The Variable Control Voice Actuator (VCVA)
reduces memory usage by turning the
recorder off when it senses silence (☞ P.28).
● Recorded audio files can be stored in three
separate folders for easy identification at a
later time.
● The LCD screen displays file numbers, a
real-time counter, remaining recording time,
current time and date, operating mode, and
warnings in a clear format.
● The editing capability allows you to insert
additional recording into previously recorded
audio files (☞ P.20).
● In combination with IBM’s ViaVoice speech
recognition software (optionally available
from IBM), the voice data can automatically
converted to text.
* The recording time available may be shorter than
specified if a large number of short recordings are
made. (Use the remaining time and recorded time
only as references.)
