I recently purchased the transcription kit, even in the face of advice to not do so, and I’m very pleased that I did. I use a Sony ICD-P110 digital voice recorder, with version 3 of the Digital Voice Editor software from Sony. I only bought the transcription kit because it was almost half price, as I was unsure about how well it would work.

I have not been disappointed. The only problem is that if you save the MSWord document you’re working on, the digital recording is reset to start playing from zero again. I think the save comand is activated in both programmes. I simply note my expired playback time before saving the Word document. I have also been able to play back mp3 files.

I am however very pleased with the overall package.

This item is horrible. When transcribing you would often have to restart the whole thing if you stopped more than a few seconds, it would not hold your place in a given work product. Not only that, but Amazon charged me $34 to restock the item. WARNING: DO NOT BUY!!!

I was able to use this pedal with .wav files downloaded from an Olympus recorder, no problem.

Pedal works fine, software is adequate.

I have transcribed approx 3 hours of recording so far.

I purchased this Sony Product to go with Sony Digital Voice Recorder ICD-PX720. I currently transcribe at home for 2 doctors. This is almost effortless when it comes to transcribing. I would also recommend the Sony Digital Voice Recorder listed above. The digital sound quality is superb and crystal clear. No hissing noise that you would find if you were using microcassettes. I researched this for about a month and this was the best product and price point to change over to digital. I made an excellent choice buying these 2 products. My purchasing experience from Amazon was excellent. Ginger Spanos from Paintsville, Kentucky.

When I bought the product I had high hopes for what it would do. I am master’s student trying to transcribe my interviews for my thesis. I wanted a product to take my recorder interviews and turn them into written word. This software does not do that. All the software does is allow for you speed up, stop and rewind a recording with your foot. This foot pedal somewhat eases the process but if you did not use a Sony IC recorder the software will not read anything that is not a .wav file. My recorder of course saves the audio files as .wma. So I then had to download conversion software!! The headphones provided with the software and foot pedal are of poor quality especially for the price the product costs. I ended up having to combine the transcription software with Dragon Naturally Speaking to transcribe my interview. It has been a big hassle. I would not recommend this item for if you are expecting a faster and more efficient process.
