dictation system
(M2 PressWIRE Via Thomson Dialog NewsEdge)
RDATE:11022008
London -- With the DS-5000 Voice Recorder and AS-5000 Transcription
Kit, Olympus introduces two new products for across-the board
professional dictation requirements. These top-of-the-range devices are
complemented by the all-new DSS Player Pro software which provides
added power and versatility to streamline workflow for more efficiency.
With a focus on flexibility, security, simplicity and reliability, the
DS-5000 incorporates numerous state-of-the-art features to boost the
productivity of dictation-users in all types of small, medium and even
large businesses. This is further enhanced when used in conjunction
with the AS-5000 Transcription Kit. Dictation and transcription
requirements are therefore seamlessly integrated into the daily office
workflow. Bundled with the latest incarnation of DSS Player Pro
software, both the DS-5000 and AS-5000 will be available from March
2008. Their respective recommended retail prices areGBP349 and GBP179.
As flexible as you are
The DS-5000 is tailored to meet all professional dictation requirements
and is part of the complete Olympus dictation solution comprising voice
recorder, transcription kit and dictation management software.
Regardless of the dictation situation, this first-class voice recorder
has all bases covered in the entire process. Housed in a luxurious
matt-black metal body that exudes elegance, it not only plays the part
- it also looks the part.
No matter how diverse the jobs you have, the DS-5000 can handle it. Up
to seven folders with up to 199 files each are available to organise
recordings. So that important parts can be easily found later on, users
can set up to 32 index marks per file during recording. Furthermore,
the same number of verbal annotations can be appended to each file -
giving users the chance to add special notes or ideas to specific
sections of previously captured recording. A handy verbal comment
function additionally allows an overall remark to be attached to a
file, which can be used to give the transcriptionist general
instructions, for example.
Voice files can be recorded in two different recording qualities,
including the new extremely high quality QP mode, enabling the perfect
balance of quality and quantity to be selected personally.
For easy access to the most commonly used functions, three programmable
smart buttons are available. Support of both SD and microSD memory
cards means storage capacity is flexibly managed and can be extended at
any time.
The Hi-Speed USB interface is compatible with USB Storage, Audio and
HID classes to extend user options. Moreover, the DS-5000 also features
a full duplex microphone and speaker. Centralised firmware updates are
also possible with this model.
Ensuring the DS-5000 remains up-to-date even in years to come, a
special I/O interface has been integrated, allowing plug-in modules of
the future to be supported[*].
Furthermore, the included DSS Player Pro Dictation Software Module
represents a powerful new dictation management tool. This will enable
users to flexibly enhance their dictation workflow in a variety of IT
environments - no matter how small or large. The software supports
multiple file formats including DSS Pro, DSS, WMA and WAV. Moreover,
MP3 decoder support is also provided. DSS Player Pro will even
automatically update itself - ensuring users always have the most
up-to-date solution available to optimise office efficiency.
High security for peace of mind
Business users often discuss matters that are highly confidential - or
at least not intended for everyone's ears. That's why the DS-5000
incorporates numerous security features to ensure files are protected
from unauthorised playback or duplication. For starters, this model
allows voice files to be encrypted and decrypted. Furthermore, users
can set up password protection on their device. The special DS-5000iD
model even enables protection using biometric information. In this way
maximum security is assured.
Simplicity in action
While the DS-5000 is a veritable powerhouse, operation remains simple.
Menu choices are intuitive to let the user focus on the business at
hand. A single slide switch allows the most common functions to be
accessed in just a fraction of a second. Further navigation buttons are
located ergonomically in the centre of the device to ensure easy data
input and access to settings. Allowing all information to be seen at a
glance in a choice of six languages, this model also features a large,
back-lit LCD, which is protected against scratches thanks to a
high-grade, coated screen.
A reliable companion at all times
A business tool is nothing if it is not dependable. That's why Olympus
has gone to great lengths to ensure the DS-5000 performs exceptionally
in this regard. Its metal body protects it against the knocks and bumps
of daily use. The slide switch mechanism, which runs on rubber rollers
for virtually noise-free operation, has been thoroughly tested for
extended use. The USB connector and battery door have been specifically
designed for heavy-duty treatment. And when it's time to take the
recorder from the desktop cradle to the hand, users will enjoy the
convenience of one-hand dock and undock functionality. Furthermore, due
to extra-low battery consumption, the DS-5000 continues recording after
others have long given up the ghost.
Streamline office workflow further with the AS-5000 Transcription Kit
By coupling the DS-5000 with the AS-5000 Transcription Kit, efficiency
can be taken up several notches in businesses of all sizes. Dictation
thereby becomes a fully integrated part of the office workflow and the
conversion from voice to text is made significantly easier. The AS-5000
Transcription Kit includes a footswitch and headset to ensure ergonomic
working by the transcriptionist.
In addition, process efficiency is optimised thanks to the new DSS
Player Pro Transcription Software Module bundled with the AS-5000
Transcription Kit. Besides making secure file management easier than
ever before, it offers multiple file transfer options to suit
individual requirements. Full Citrix and Terminal Service support is
provided and it is compatible with POP3, SMTP, IMAP Microsoft Outlook,
Novell GroupWise, Lotus Notes and Extended MAPI email environments.
Moreover, SSL support for email/ftp is also included.
The DS-5000 Voice Recorder and AS-5000 Transcription Kit - along with
the corresponding DSS Player Pro software - represent a complete
digital dictation and transcription system for businesses of all types
and sizes. They will be available from March 2008 - exclusively at
