The Martel Court Reporter Difference

Built Into a Package for the Way Court Reporters Actually Work

A deposition isn't one person speaking directly into a recorder. The witness may be across the table. Attorneys may be positioned on different sides. One voice may be softer than another. Air conditioning may be running in the room. And your assignment may last for hours.

This package is built around those real-world conditions.

Independent Professional Backup

Don't Make Your Laptop Your Only Audio Recording System

Your laptop is already handling CAT software, dictionaries, jobs, realtime and computer audio. This recorder creates its own completely separate audio file while you continue working normally.

CAT Audio + Independent Recorder = Two Separate Recording Paths

Designed for Real Court Reporting Environments

One Recorder. Multiple Voices Around the Deposition Table.

The microphone system can be adjusted from broader stereo coverage toward highly directional pickup depending on the room and where the important voices are located.

Martel Court Reporter Setup Guide

“Deposition Room,” “Courtroom / Large Deposition Room” and “Meeting Room” are Martel descriptions of how court reporters can use the recorder. The recorder's factory menu identifies the corresponding presets as Lecture, Conference and Meeting.

No single setting is correct for every proceeding. Room acoustics, speaker distance, background noise and recorder placement always matter.

Court Reporter Questions

Common Questions

Quick answers before adding it to your reporting bag.

Does this replace my CAT software's audio?

No. That's the advantage. It creates a separate independent recording while you continue using your normal CAT audio system.

Can it record a witness farther away?

The recorder provides highly directional microphone settings, and its factory Lecture preset is designed for situations where the microphone is pointed toward a speaker farther away. Martel uses that capability in our Deposition Room setup. Actual usable distance depends on speaker volume, room acoustics, background noise, recorder placement and settings.

How far can the microphones pick up?

The manufacturer does not publish one maximum voice-pickup distance in feet. Instead, the recorder provides 21 levels of microphone directivity plus settings for different room and speaker situations. Actual usable range varies according to speaker volume, room acoustics, background noise and placement.

Why do I see Lecture, Conference and Meeting in the recorder menu?

Those are the manufacturer's original factory preset names. Martel's court reporter setup guide translates those capabilities into Deposition Room, Courtroom / Large Deposition Room and Meeting Room so it is easier to understand which setup may fit a court reporting assignment.

How long do the rechargeable batteries last?

The Ni-MH rechargeable batteries are rated at up to approximately 37 hours when recording at MP3 128 kbps or MP3 64 kbps mono under manufacturer test conditions. Higher-resolution recording modes use more power.

How much can the included 32 GB card record?

At MP3 128 kbps, a 32 GB card provides approximately 530 hours of recording capacity. Actual available recording time can vary.

Does it include rechargeable batteries?

Yes. Rechargeable Ni-MH batteries are included, and the recorder uses two AAA-size batteries.

Does the Martel package include an AC charger?

Yes. Martel includes an AC adapter/charger with this professional package.

Can I use this alongside Case CATalyst or Eclipse?

Yes. The recorder is independent of the CAT program. It creates its own separate recording while you work in your normal software. It is not represented as directly integrating with the CAT software.

Product appearance, specifications and manufacturer-supplied accessories are subject to change without notice. Martel package accessories may differ from the manufacturer's standard retail package.

Microphone pickup distance varies according to speaker volume, room acoustics, microphone direction, recording level, background noise and recorder placement. Martel's Deposition Room, Courtroom / Large Deposition Room and Meeting Room labels are court-reporter-oriented usage descriptions; the recorder's corresponding factory menu presets retain their manufacturer names. Recording laws, court rules and venue policies vary; always follow applicable requirements.
