Olympus DS9000- Dictation Machine for lawyers:

The most important question that everyone is asking and we have the answer to is yes, your older Olympus dictation equipment recorder like the DS7000 and DS5000 are compatible with the new DS9000 dictation machine. 

Features

Speech Recognition with Accuracy, Clarity and Noise-Reduction
Intelligent dual microphone technology settings ensure optimization for many different recording environments. For example, in a noisy environment such as an airport, use narrow directional to ensure the voice is accurately captured. Conference rooms with multiple individuals speaking, use a wide directional setting recording to accurately capture all presenters.

Professional Quality Studio Recording Built-in
The included studio quality pop filter reduces additional noise from wind and breath noise, encouraging more accurate transcription and professional quality recordings.

Motion Sensor and VCVA Technology
While the motion sensor allows the user to wake up the device by picking it up to immediately start recording, the Olympus VCVA technology automatically tracks pauses in a speaker's dictation in order to save time, power and recording space. These features are easily customized and allow 15 different sensitivity levels, providing intuitive usage and power saving options for every user.

Shock Proof Body Improves Longevity
A reliable body design resists up to a 1.5 meter (4.9-ft) fall significantly improves the lifespan of the device in heavy use environments. An optical slide switch reduces risk of mechanical failure.

Additional Features:

Alcohol wipes resistant body
256-bit file encryption with DSS Pro audio codec
Directional Stereo Recording optimized for Conference settings
Olympus Dictation Management System Release 7 software included
