What Is a Digital Dictation Recorder?
A digital dictation recorder is a convenient and compact electronic device used for recording spoken voices. The digital dictation recorder is then able to play back the recordings at a later time. This type of device is frequently used by legal professionals, medical professionals, and students, but they may be used by anyone who wants a device to jog their memory. A digital dictation recorder is typically fairly simple, and is designed to fit easily in a pocket or purse, with buttons to record, stop, pause, or play the recording, and a display screen to show the amount of time it has been recording. It will also feature a microphone to pick up the voice, as well as a small speaker or 3.5 mm headphone jack to listen to the recordings. The storage medium is the other important feature on a digital dictation recorder; this is what separates it from a more traditional analog recorder, which used a small cassette tape to record.
