In fact, you don't even need the free Dictation Module utility. We recommend forgetting about so-called professional utilities that try to imitate Dragon because there is no Dragon competitor. We believe that both Olympus and Philips offer professional dictation utilities that can bypass Dragon but why would you want to when you already own DPI 15.3, which is significantly more accurate and much better. While the Olympus DS-2500 is a limited consumer grade recorder that lacks professional features like the ability to punch in/out without leaving an audible glitch (which is transcribed as unwanted dictation noise) or having to create a new recording, it includes the most important professional feature: The DS-2500 default setting utilizes DS2 algorithms which are ideally suited to Dragon and why we carry this recorder on our site. We sometimes call DPI 15.3 the digital recorder version of Dragon because of how well it handles transcribing digital recordings. Welcome to the World's Most Popular Speech Recognition Forum

is it correct that Dragon Medical Edition doesn’t support Olympus voice recorders?Īny advice would be appreciated, also any links to websites that might be useful?.

should it be possible to transcribe speech to text within the DSS player Pro transcription module?.

It looks like this should be possible as the DSS player Pro transcription module has a Transcribe menu, however this is greyed out.

However ideally, they would like to be able to do the transcription in the Olympus software interface (DSS player Pro transcription module version 5.0.14.0), because they are super busy and this is where they normally do all their work. They are recording on Olympus DS-2500 voice recorders, and don’t want to change to a different recorder.Įverything is working fine with transcription when doing this via the DragonBar / Transcribe.

I am assisting a client who works in a medical practice and is using Dragon Professional Individual 15 to transcribe a medical specialist’s recorded speech.
