🎙️ OM Digital Solutions DM-520 Digital Voice Recorder Review

I had read reviews from others so I had mixed feelings when I ordered the DM-520. then he arrived. I like to think I understand electronics, but that was a stretch. No! The user manual is fine (I went to the website and downloaded the detailed version of the user manual), so I think the best way to describe the use of the voice recorder is to say that it's a puzzle of sorts, You have all these features. You just have to figure out what goes where. You will definitely need to spend some time…

I have had several Olympus digital voice recorders and have been happy with each one. I've always felt I got more for my money with Olympus. The DM-520 is an excellent recorder. It's easy to use and offers plenty of storage space, even without adding a microSD card. This recorder is quite solid and makes a high-quality and durable impression. It has excellent sensitivity, and Olympus Sonority software helps create MP3 files from recordings. I've recorded several seminars with a voice recorder…

Have been using this voice recorder for a couple of years, very useful and reliable. I am responsible for taking the minutes of project meetings and often there are 10 or more people sitting around the large meeting table and usually chatting to each other.

I first bought an Olympus WS-710 but returned it after about a day of use. This is also an excellent recorder, however the maximum…

If you are a student and need a recording device to "record" your lectures. this is the recorder for you. I'm not very good at note-taking, so I needed a device that I can use to basically support myself when taking notes from lectures. I bought it in 2009 when I entered grad school and it has served me well without any problems. The DM-520 is great at picking up the voices of soft-spoken classmates across the room. as well as suppressing (or minimizing) the sounds of humming air conditioners…

As a member of a large, growing professional choral organization, I bought this tape recorder to replay our rehearsals and record my piano part in a friend's voice. I used to use a laptop with a computer headset mic and an old plain Olympus voice recorder. None of them offered enough sound quality to do what I needed. I've thought about buying a better mic for my computer, but a good enough mic costs about 66% of that purchase price considering most mics need a mic amp when plugged into a…
