Customer Reviews

Glad I went ahead and bought the Kit
I recently purchased the transcription kit, even in the face of advice to not do so, and I'm very pleased that I did. I use a Sony ICD-P110 digital voice recorder, with version 3 of the Digital Voice Editor software from Sony. I only bought the transcription kit because it was almost half price, as I was unsure about how well it would work.

I have not been disappointed. The only problem is that if you save the MSWord document you're working on, the digital recording is reset to start playing from zero again. I think the save comand is activated in both programmes. I simply note my expired playback time before saving the Word document. I have also been able to play back mp3 files.

I am however very pleased with the overall package.

Junk
This item is horrible. When transcribing you would often have to restart the whole thing if you stopped more than a few seconds, it would not hold your place in a given work product. Not only that, but Amazon charged me $34 to restock the item. WARNING: DO NOT BUY!!!

Fine product
I was able to use this pedal with .wav files downloaded from an Olympus recorder, no problem.

Pedal works fine, software is adequate.

I have transcribed approx 3 hours of recording so far.
