Digital media devices and mobile phones are quickly taking over the single purpose portable devices so that your pockets won't be filled with too many gadgets. With so many companies developing their own designs to compete with others, older devices like walkmans and CD players are no longer used and thrown off the shelves.
Of course, while a vast number of today's digital media devices do incorporate some form of voice recorder; the quality isn't always that great. Primarily, this is because those devices focus more on other aspects and as a result voice recorder features are pretty much limited. Furthermore, if it's only a voice recorder you're looking for, then buying a new mobile phone is certainly far from being cost effective, not to mention the fact that you more than likely already own a phone.
Of course, because of the lack of quality with regards to voice recorders which are built-in to other devices, individual voice records are still proving to be extremely popular. In fact, this is all too apparent with regards to the all new Olympus WS-210S. After all, from the moment you first see it, it's obvious that it's not going to cost you an arm and a leg, even though it has a great looking finish and is so incredibly easy to use.
While Microsoft users will welcome the idea that the Olympus WS-210S utilizes Windows Media Audio (WMA) format, practically everyone looking for lightweight, compact recorder will also find it ideal. Furthermore, this little marvel allows you to record for as much as 138 hour's non-stop in standard quality. In other words, you can leave it running for almost six days straight.
Interestingly enough, the Olympus WS-210S also makes use of Variable Control Voice Actuator (VCVA) technology. What this means is, if left running, the recorder will pause itself during periods where no sound is being detected. Of course a feature like this can save you a considerable amount of time as far as post editing is concerned, not to mention the power saving benefits.
The Olympus WS-210S also manages to squeeze in 512 MB of flash memory for storing the audio and can optionally be used as a standard storage device. Up to 5 folders can be created with a max of 199 items per folder which should be more than enough considering the fact that you can transfer these files to your computer.
Weighing on 47 grams, the Olympus WS-210S is an ideal recorder to carry on your person. Of course, just as with cameras and mobile phones, the battery life depends largely on the quality setting you choose to use. However, the device does come with six different setting, thus allowing you to set it up according to your requirements, be it longer battery life, or be it more storage capability.
From what I can gather, feedback regarding the Olympus WS-210S has been extremely positive and it's certainly easy to see why, considering it only costs $70. Yes, it may lack a voice filtering feature but then again, it offers speed control instead.
