Excellent Voice Recorder - Digital Voice Recorder

This voice recorder was purchased over a year ago and is used on average 15 hours a week to record school lectures. I love the fact that I can download it onto my computer every night and record it again the next day. I can put each of my courses in a separate folder and each lecture has a date and time. The only problem I had was in a classroom where the air conditioning was on and I was closer than the teacher - this made the shot very blurry. I would suggest sitting as close to the speaker…

Pros
  • Voice-activated for hands-free recording; Automatic timer recording and alarm functions
Cons
  • Quality

Not what I wanted: Digital Voice Recorder

I'm sure the Olympus VN-480PC is a great voice recorder, but it's a regular Olympus VN-480 (I don't understand why PC reviews are posted here, but ok). I got this recorder from my father who never knows what he's buying - especially it's cheap. At first I was very happy with this recorder. The box contained instructions, the recorder itself and a cable (!). I made some recordings and wanted to transfer them to my computer. Well no matter what I wanted but it doesn't work. I've searched all…

Pros
  • Easy to use thumb navigation; convenient file management with 4 folders
Cons
  • insecure

I use OLYMPUS to record my main presentations.

I take my OLYMPUS VN-480PC and start recording. That's easy. WHAT I REALLY LOVE ABOUT IT: Great benefits! The recording quality at headquarters is much better than mine. I can download it to my computer, email it, or upload it to my website. The screen is larger, clearer and easy to read. The recorder's solid construction with a durable plexiglass front cover provides good screen protection. The batteries are sealed tight and don't move around like my old PC digital recorder. Moving batteries…

Pros
  • Compact digital voice recorder with integrated flash memory 64 MB
Cons
  • I have doubts
