- 1 - DSS (Digital Speech Standard) Recording
- High-quality recording format provides superior clarity and compatibility with voice recognition software.
- 2 - Programmable Buttons
- Programmable buttons that speed up reaction time increase the DR-2000's and DR-1000's flexibility and reliability. Instead of having more buttons than necessary, the DR-2000 allows users to program the functions they use the most onto one rear button and front A or B buttons. The functions include: Index Mark, Insert/Overwrite, Priority, launching an external program and more. The DR-1000 offers one rear programmable button and a front A button.
In addition to the programmable buttons, further functionality can be supported by combining any button on the DR-1000 or DR-2000 with the Shift or Ctrl key on your computer's keyboard. This function is supported by the included DSS Player software.
- 3 - USB Audio Class Compatible
- The DR-2000 and DR-1000 are USB Audio Class Compatible, so they can be used as a USB microphone or USB speaker when connected to a PC without the need for installing a specialty driver. The powerful built-in speaker provides hi-fidelity acoustic playback. In addition, the DR-1000 is HID Class Compatible, allowing it to be used as a USB mouse/pointer without the nees for special drivers.
- 4 - USB Mouse Pointing Device
- The DR-1000 includes a 360-degree mouse-pointing sensor providing fast, simple operability. The device is highly durable and reliable to help prevent it from breaking, wearing out, or sticking.
- 5 - True Slide Switch Control
- The DR-2000's "true slide switch" is contoured to the thumb for smooth control of record, stop, play and review functions all with the same switch.
- 6 - Demographic Data Input
- Register an ID directly in the DR-2000 or DR-1000 and have it become part of the created recording file's naming convention for quick and easy retrieval.
- 7 - Highly Sensitive Microphone
- The Directrec DR-2000 and DR-1000 deliver stunning performance -- highly sensitive, built-in omni directional microphones ensure that every detail is recorded, whether the device is being used from a distance or at a conference.
- 8 - Easy Editing
- The Directrec DR-2000 and DR-1000 allow for easy editing of existing recordings by appending, overwriting, inserting, and erasing or partial-erase of recording.
- 9 - Adjustable Microphone Sensitivity Levels
- Microphone sensitivity can be easily adjusted to suit the recording conditions (dictation/conference) using the included DSS Player or DSS Player Pro software.
- 10 - Up to 16 Index Marks Per File
- Particularly relevant moments in an interview, briefing or lecture may be flagged -- either during or after recording -- using the index marks for quick retrieval. Up to 16 index marks can be set in a file.
- 11 - Included DSS Player / DSS Pro Player Software
- The DR-1000 Dictation Kit comes with DSS Player Version 6 Software. The DR-1000 is also available in an Executive Kit that comes with DSS Player Pro Software. The DR-2000 Executive Kit comes with DSS Player Pro Software.
