Rating: 1 out of 5 stars - 'DAMAGED' DENTED BATTERIES INCLUDED
Olympus DS-40 Digital Voice Recorder

ONE (1) OF THE INCLUDED BATTERIES ARRIVED DAMAGED.
I HAVE NOT REPLACED IT - THEREFORE MY REVIEW IS NOT POSSIBLE
VERY DISAPPOINTING



Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Great for lecture
This recorder comes with a very sensitive mic. On the upside this makes it great for recording lectures. On the downside you pick up a lot of ambient when doing so.

The built in voice filter is shockingly effective for lecture play back and really addresses many of the problems with background noise.

The user interface is a bit clunky. Downloading to computer fixes that problem; however, when doing so you give up the background filter!

I appreciate that the ... Read More



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Survived the washing machine!
Not recommending the anyone else try this, but I forgot that my DS-40 was in my cargo pants pocket and ran it through the wash. It was in a[...] zippered cloth case from Radio Shack, and wrapped with a piece of rubber mesh shelf liner (for padding). But it definitely got wet. There was an opaque fog of condensation inside the LED screen. I let it dry out, and helped it along by inhaling on various openings.

When the screen was clear of fog, I gritted my teeth and hit the power button. ... Read More



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - great as a singer songwriter sketchbook
I bought this as a convenient and quick way to record songs that I write on the acoustic guitar. The sound quality is excellent. The guitar loses some low end, but overall my guitar sounds like my guitar. Voice is excellent - which makes sense as this is a voice recorder! No hiss when i use the dictation setting, going up to conference and lecture adds some as the gain is boosted to record from far away. For my purposes, I leave it on the dictation setting. The stereo separation is very good, it picks up ... Read More



Rating: 2 out of 5 stars - OK for what it does
The Olympus DS-40 Digital Voice Recorder is fine if you just want a recorder for lectures. Each time you stop the recording, it starts a new file. If you want to erase, you must erase the whole file. To download, you must treat each file separately. A nuisance if you ask me. If you want a machine to dictate notes, like a doctor or a lawyer, that is able to edit (erase, insert, delete sections in the middle of your dictation), this is not the machine for you. Olympus has a line of professional dictation ... Read More
