The higher quality recording device you buy the more effective and efficient for both of us. It will provide a clear rerecording enabling us to transcribe it accurately and efficiently, thus saving you time and money. Our advice is to buy from recommended suppliers who provide ongoing help and technical support. Some companies will come to install your software and show you how to use the equipment. Ensure you explain to the suppliers what you will need your recorder for in order that they provide you with the correct model. We do not recommend that you buy a note taker as the sound quality is poor and they do not have the same specification and facilities as digital recorders. They are what they say they are, note takers, and are not for recording long dictations.
Recorders that record into DSS files are the ones you should go for as DSS (Digital Speech Standard) files are compressed. They are designed for dictations. They are small and take up the least space. They email and upload and download quickly. Most recorders will record in WAV format, although WAV files are the largest and therefore take a long time to upload and download. If you have a recorder that records in other formats, when can still transcribe it for you. Fingertips have the necessary transcription software to transcribe from most formats. These are just recommendations for new purchases.
