>From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] >[mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Michael Lang > >Yet another new voice recorder from Olympus > >It is called WS-331M and has 2 gigabytes of built-in memory. This is >another model of the WS-300 series. All these machines offer WMA >recording and WMA and MP3 playback.

Unfortunately, the fine talking menus of the new >DS recorders do not seem to be available on the 331M. > >It's interesting to compare the WS-300 series and the new DS recorders. >The WS machines are for people, who only make speech recordings >occasionally, but who use the recorder more to listen to music. The >WS-300 recorders offer a fine equalizer with some nice WOW effects like >true bass. As a blind person, one can control this equalizer, including >the WOW effects with the DSS Player Plus software, which is not supplied >with the WS recorders. It's great to be able to control the equalizer of >an MP3 player, at least on the PC. AS much as I know, it was never >before possible to set the five band equalizer of a portable audio >player without having to see the display. The DS recorders do not have >this fine equalizer, but offer more speech features, like several time >navigation interval settings and adjustable slow and fast playback, not >only for WMA but also for MP3 files. They also have an AC adapter socket >and come with a ClipOn microphone. The casing is made of metal, the WS >recorders have a plastic casing. > > <*** Michael Lang ***>
