Doesn't work with Mac

Doesn't work with my Mac despite reviews saying so. Very frustrated that I had to keep using hotkeys instead of facilitating with a pedal and I haven't been able to expand my transcription business in the way I had hoped.

Pros
  • Good thing
Cons
  • I'll add later

VERY DISAPPOINTING. Poorly made. I ask if it is so.

VERY DISAPPOINTED. Poorly made. I doubt this is really an Olympus product or fake in a fake box. Lasted less than 4 months, only about 100 hours with careful use. Then the plastic of the left pedal simply broke off. The previous pedal lasted 5 years.

Pros
  • Best in its niche
Cons
  • Expensive

Great pedal for DSS Player 7

I've been doing freelance transcription for almost 10 years and this is the first time I've had to replace a pedal with a newer model. This replaces my old RS 25 which still works great, but in order to upgrade to the latest (and greatest) version 7 DSS player I also had to upgrade the footswitch. It's almost the same. Standard model with right hand, left hand and center play. It works well and has good plug and play functionality. No problem. It seems like another solid device and I will be…

Pros
  • Everything great!
Cons
  • Lots of stuff
