Comments: This new digital recorder from Philips is nothing less than extraordinary. We're incredibly impressed by the engineering put into this device. As bundled, it includes the Speech Exec 7 software program. For users of speech recognition this device is a perfect way to capture your dictation while in clinic, while rounding, or while on the road. With the included software it can be set up to automatically transcribe your captured dictation with Dragon, leaving you or your support staff to paste content where needed in the electronic health record.

Comments: this is the only digital recorder we carry, and for a reason. Simply put, it's the best. If you want the best results available using a digital recorder with Dragon, this is the hand-held recorder to own. While we prefer the use of a wired headset and instantaneous evaluation of speech to text conversion, for the busy speech recognition user that does not have the luxury of working in front of a computer, this is the perfect solution. We include with this item the up-to-date SpeechExec 5.0 software and all needed cables. Be warned - the initial set-up takes a bit of time. Also, you will need to create a separate Dragon user file on the PC on which recorded files will be transcribed. Be aware that unlike the usual Dragon user file, the initial training is significantly longer when using a digital recorder and this typically takes a bit more than 15 minutes of reading. All of this having been said, we are astounded at how well this device works!
