The Olympus DS-3000 digital voice recorder sets new standards and truly satisfies professional demands. This high-end model not only assures users the freedom of mobile operation but is also an impressive office tool. Once connected to the PC, via the USB interface, the possibilities are greatly enhanced by the Olympus DSS Player Pro software.

Besides direct dictation from the Olympus DS-3000 to the computer, the innovative software also enables fast and efficient file management, editing, automatic email transfer, transcription and archiving. Files are saved in the high-quality, high-compression DSS format and stored on removable SmartMedia memory cards for effectively unlimited recording. The ergonomic design guarantees one-thumb control over all important functions. With ten "work types", the user can assign subject names to recordings for easy retrieval. Ten "user IDs" help identify a file's author.
