Main Features/Identification of Parts Main Features The DS-3000 digital voice recorder stores highly compressed DSS audio files on SmartMedia cards. The DS-3000 supports two recording modes: SP (Standard Playback) mode and LP (Long Playback) mode ( P.14). The supplied 16MB SmartMedia card can store approximately 2 hours and 35 minutes of recordings* in SP mode and approximately 5 hours and 30 minutes* in LP mode. A 128MB SmartMedia card (sold separately) can hold up to 44 hours and 40 minutes* of recordings. The Variable Control Voice Actuator (VCVA) saves memory space by pausing recording when the recorder judges that there is no sound ( P.18). Recorded audio files can be stored in three separate folders for easier identification in future use. The LCD screen displays file numbers, a real-time counter, remaining recording time, current time and date, operating mode, and warnings in a clear format. Overwrite recording, insert recording, additional recording and partial erasure functions make it easy to correct and edit recordings. Furthermore, the AS-3000 transcription kit (sold separately) provides you with a PC-footswitch and DSS Player Pro Transcription Module for easy transcription of DSS recordings. * The recording time available may be shorter than specified if a large number of short recordings are made. (Use the remaining time and recorded time only as references.) 6 Identification of Parts 1 Built-in microphone 2 NEW button 3 REC (Record) /SET button 4 REW (Rewind) /- button 5 FF (Fast Forward) /+ button 6 INDEX button 7 ERASE button 8 Built-in speaker 9 FOLDER/MENU button 0 STOP button !
