Dictaphones are ears that actively listen and record when a conversation is detected

Digital voice recorders in translation sound recorders are the modern successors of cassette recorders, which now record and store audio

Dictaphones are clearly digital today. Mini dictaphones are currently very popular around the world and in Slovenia, they are small in size, such as a  dictaphone in the form of a USB stick  or a dictaphone in the form of a  rechargeable battery .

Digital voice recorders in translation sound recorders are the modern successors of cassette recorders, which now record and store audio, recording in mp3 format (192kpbs, 128jbps, 64 kbps), wma or lossless wav files

Dictaphone prices vary in performance, and most dictaphones can record in uncompressed audio format (wav, aiff, flac) or lossy compression format (mp3, wma, aac, ogc, wv)

The sound quality depends on the size of the file and vice versa, but it is true that the latest codecs are so good that you should have exceptional hearing and audiophile equipment to recognize the difference.

When the recording is captured with a dictaphone, the sound can still be processed in principle. This is where sound processing occurs. Save the recording to a computer, before processing, first make a copy of the original.

I would divide sound processing into 4 areas, namely trimming, cutting and copying sound, removing noise, and adding sound effects.

Trimming means when I remove an audio track at the beginning and end when the record is "empty". Cutting for me means removing certain sets of interjections that bother me. When we move to noise removal we talk about removing e.g. noises such as noise and coughing. When adding "special" effects, I'm not interested in pitch, volume, tempo, speed. You could also equalize the volume and add echo. The only limitation is the processing software. Eg Audacity is ok and free.

Dictaphones are usually dark in color and everyday shapes found in homes, offices, but most of our customers hide them, stick them with double-sided tape and in this way attach them to the interior of the car or office so it is practically impossible to find them.

Eavesdropping with dictaphones has never been so easy as it is today! Voice recorders are high-quality listening devices of various sizes, which enable various possibilities of recording sound and listening to conversations, meetings and appointments. With them, you can eavesdrop live or listen to recordings from a memory card at any time later.

A dictaphone of small dimensions can be any listening device has its own specifics and characteristics, and all are designed extremely discreetly and unobtrusively. They are characterized by a quality housing and good sound quality even at a greater distance, which is definitely essential for recording. Above all, those devices that work with the help of the GSM network are interesting, which means that you can listen to the conversations live and you are always up to date.

Dictaphones represent a wide range of different eavesdropping devices and allow everyone to find the one they need. When choosing, pay particular attention to the way the eavesdropping device works and its technical characteristics, as well as whether it allows you to listen to live recordings. At the same time, it is also important what kind of batteries the dictaphone needs, how durable it is and how much space it has on the memory card. It depends on how long you will be able to record or how long you will be able to listen to it without interruption. You probably don’t want the recorder to stop working right in the middle of the most interesting conversation, do you?

What is the difference between a dictaphone and a notebook or dictaphone? How do I know if I need a dictaphone or a recorder / dictaphone? What's the difference?

Notebooks or sound recorders are commonly used to record sound from multiple speakers, such as lectures, interviews, meetings, and focus groups, where a high-quality microphone is required to receive all speakers.

 

The sound is usually recorded in one recording with a few interruptions. Notebooks are easy to use, stop and run at the touch of a button. When you press the stop button, you have created a file, and when you press Start again, a new file is created. You can usually pause and resume, but there is no option to rewind, view, delete, and resume recording in the same file.

 

Most notebooks record in highly functional formats such as WMA, MP3 or PCM / .WAV., Which means that file sizes are quite large. Because meetings, etc., could take several hours, the files could be even larger, allowing them to be sent via email.

 

Dictaphones are made for single-person dictation and are commonly used to record letters or short notes - especially useful in the legal and medical professions.

 

Voice recorders usually have one-way microphones to receive one speaker and are ideal for people who experience many interruptions during dictation meetings, as they come with rewinding / reviewing and rewriting / inserting functions.

 

Premium voice recorders are equipped with a “new” button that is used to create a new file. You can press stop to review / delete, and then continue recording to the same file. Voice recorders typically use .dss and .ds2 audio formats, resulting in very small digital audio files and easier to download over the Internet via email.

 

What if I want to dictate and record meetings? Do I need two separate devices?

Notebooks can be used for dictation, but they have the limitations mentioned above. If you mostly record meetings and conferences and only occasionally dictate, you can use your dictation record. Remember, however, that you will not be able to view / delete and you will have large files that are not easy to send by email. You may need to resort to Dropbox, which is not secure.

 

If your quality professional dictation is your priority, but you need to record small meetings, the latest digital voice recorders are top quality. Top models can record small meetings (up to 5 people in a small room with good acoustics) and with the help of external microphones can accommodate up to 12 people - again in a good sound environment.

 

Of course, if you have a lot of dictation volume and often record situations with multiple speakers, you can choose to use a different device for each feature. Use permitted by law.

Mini voice recorders for hiding in space or pockets

Dictaphones with which people look for proof of their spouse's infidelity / fidelity or proof of corruption - what do all these people have in common? Willingness to record important information. If you are one of them, there is nothing better than a dictaphone, a sound recorder.

Dictaphones are also suitable for students who are willing to get good grades, journalists who want to improve their technique, business people who participate in the conference.

The mini-size dictaphone from our offer is powerful, but it surpasses compacts in terms of quality. 

A dictaphone, excellent quality, micro size, comparable to compact public voice recorders, which are recorded with voice perception, can be purchased for 137 euros. A good example of such a device is the small but versatile Diasonic DDR-5300. Many professional recorders like Gnome 2M. such dictaphones are often equipped with many high-quality microphones and can cost even more than a thousand euros. Several factors need to be considered before choosing the right equipment.

The most important issue is sound quality and form. A simple quality device is more than enough to record lectures. However, when filming is evidence of corruption, it is worth buying more expensive professional spy equipment. More advanced models are equipped with a noise canceling function, flexible recording schedule. As well as voice-activated recording and modern signal processing algorithms that are invaluable. An absolute novelty in the market is remote access to recordings via the Internet and real-time monitoring function. A good example of such a device is WIFi AR5 - world-class equipment selected by experts, special forces, intelligence services and private detectives.

Voice recorders and recording time per charge cycle

When buying a dictaphone, customers also decide on the recording time for the charge cycle of the dictaphone battery and the memory that is written to the built-in microSD card). You can store up to hundreds of hours of recording on flash memory, and some dictaphones can fall asleep when there is no sound above 60db, thus saving energy, which can significantly extend the recording time. In terms of batteries, these are usually either standard AA batteries, micro-batteries or efficient rechargeable l-ion batteries, which are also the most common choice. For example, beginning models of dictaphones in the form of a usb stick can store almost 70 hours of recording in memory. however, winning even smaller sizes such as e.g. edic MINI tiny16 a77 can run continuously for an amazing 300 hours, of course if you need it because then the prices go up sharply.

When it is necessary to discreetly record that the interlocutor is not, it is advisable to choose unobtrusive directional dictaphones. Some of them are really well-concealed and identical to the usual office items (dictaphone in the form of a USB stick, dictaphone in a pen, clock) or household items (alarm clock) which are equipped to activate the voice recording system and efficiently save battery support. sound recording devices for up to 25 days in standby mode or car remote control (ar-100 model), which is a great solution for recording conversations and storing quality recordings without arousing suspicion.

Last but not least, it is crucial to choose the right microphone sensitivity. Sensitivity can be roughly defined as the distance from the sound source that allows the device to record a regular conversation. Some professional voice recorders can record a conversation from a distance of 12 meters! If you want to be completely satisfied, you need to carefully adjust the recorder to your needs.
