All voice recorders are not created equal, which is very obvious through the current recorder market.
With digital recorders now the primary pick for the majority of consumers, manufacturers have started the war to see who can come out with the best features.
This has created an exploding market with tons of options for every consumer.
If you are just purchasing a digital voice recorder for occasional use you may not be overly concerned about the advanced features now being offered on some models.
Yet, if you like having fun gadgets to play with or will be spending considerable amounts of time with your recorder, these advanced features will give you more enjoyment and convenience with each use.
Music Files Some digital voice recorders can now take the place of your iPod! Instead of carrying around two electronic devices, you can ditch the iPod or other varieties of mp3 players and just carry around your digital recorder/music player.
Depending on how much you want to spend on this purchase, you can now find digital recorders which hold a hundred songs or those that will hold thousands of songs at once.
Of course, your music files must share space with your recording files, so how much music you opt to download into your device at any given time will be determined by how much space you need for recordings and how often you use your device for dictation and recording.
Direct PC Downloads Some digital recorders are now being designed to work with a computer completely hassle-free.
Instead of coming with wires that allow you to hook your device into your computer, they are being designed with built-in USB connectors.
You simply plug your device straight into your computer to manage files! There are even digital recorders designed to look just like a typical USB device.
This is very convenient if you are trying to spy on someone in the area of your computer, but for the most part direct PC download is a feature made for convenience.
Built-In Microphones Instead of having to push a button when you want your digital recorder to start recording sound, you can now purchase a model that has a built-in microphone.
Many of these models are designed to start recording automatically when they detect sound within a given distance of the device.
Again, these devices can be used for undercover purposes when you don't want someone to know the recorder is in the room, but this feature is used for pure convenience for many people.
Since you don't have to leave the recorder running nonstop, it is a way of conserving memory space.
Built-In Rechargeable Batteries The days of changing out batteries and purchasing replacement batteries are over! Digital video recorders are now more convenient and cheaper to own since many models are designed to charge when plugged into your computer.
The built-in batteries never need to be replaced and will stay charged much longer since they do their charging while you transfer files to your computer or even when plugged up while you sleep.
There are some other features now available on the recorder market that you may be interested in checking out.
Just keep in mind that a recorder with all of these features will run you $200-300, thanks to the expense of modern day technology!
