## Description

Prosumer Digital Recorder

Review: Excellent tape dictation replacement - My boss was old school and still recorded to an old tape dictation unit. He said the digital recorders didn't have the same feel and ease of use. I ordered one of these and it was easy for him to learn, functions well. Does exactly what we ask of it. We actually started out with the model before this and it lasted several years and when it was time to replace, we had to get this model - which is excellent as well. If I had a beef at all with this product it would be the proprietary audio files that require our transcriptionist to have their software as well. But, the files are well compressed, clear and easy to work with and I don't know if I could say the same if they were mp3. So I can't take a star away on this awesome little device just for that. We have all of our team using these for dictation now. We even bought a couple of extras when we saw the model we like was being discontinued. I'm sure the next version is great too, but they function great and are durable and I don't want to have to teach my boss a new device. We are heavy users of these devices (daily dictation of several hours - 6 days a week) and they hold up well. Highly recommended.
Review: Excellent Voice Recorder For Dictation & Conferences - I bought this voice recorder to replace an old cassette tape dictation and transcription machine. Construction appears solid. Controls are simple if not exactly intuitive. The sound quality is excellent, even better than cassettes. The supplied software allows you to automtically download a file to your PC where you can play it back for transcription or processing by a voice recognition program like Dragon (a separate purchase I have not tried because there will be many different voices and no opportunity for training). My only disappointment thus far: Recorded files cannot be renamed in the Olympus PC software, at least not as far as I can see. You are stuck with a relatively arbitrary and uninformative name assigned by the recorder. So for example if you interview someone, you cannot name the file after the interviewee unless you copy the file to a separate folder outside those managed by the software (e.g., to a folder named after the interviewee). This copied file can then be renamed, and it can be immediately played by the Olympus software without formally importing it back. The other reason for the 4-star review was the horrible delivery experience with DataVision and FedEx. I could not be present to sign for delivery at my home, the delivery could not be redirected to my office, and it could not be held in the town where I work (which has a FexEx location, not just drop-offs). DataVision and FedEx blamed each other for these problems, and eventually I had to drive 100 miles to pick the recorder up. Not a product defect, obviously, but Olympus should know about its distributors.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Olympus DS-2500 Digital Voice Recorder is a winner!
*by A***. on March 1, 2016*

I had been using micro-cassette recorders for years. I am thrilled with the quality and ease of use of the Olympus DS-2500 digital voice recorder. The sound quality is excellent. Recording over a segment or inserting something is a breeze. The instructions are well written and installation was a cinch. Very good value for the price.
