I wonder if the trek has bluetooth with aptx.
I don’t think so.

Hi!
How accessible is it?
I guess if you’re lucky with it it must be very accessible.
By the way i saw a nice little recording device which was just a microphone
with 2 or three buttons on.
Also a built in headphone jack and a slot for an micro sd card.
The price was to high but it seemed to do it
The victor Trekker does have Bluetooth capability.

Hi!
Yes but does it support the aptx format.
I don’t want to spend another bunch of money for a device and be disappointed
again.
My second gen stream is still alive and kicking but very often crashes even
though its been on repair and have been reset a bunch of times.

I do not think so. They don’t mention it when they reference bluetooth. Best to

AptX is not a format it's a protocol.

The good thing about Victor is it has real buttons. No need for voice command.
I agree doing voice command in public can be a problem.

Yes, the button thing is great, but unfortunetly they did not change
enough hardware. The stream hardware is quite bad, and all they done
now is to change the procesor and remove the line in jac to make room
for the gps antenna.
They are lazy these days, come out with just a few updates once every
Yep it has buttons, more to go wrong.

That’s obviously a personal thing isn’t it? I mean there are plenty of people
who use Voice commands with their iPhone and Siri, Android phone with Google

with a computer afterwards if necessary for editing, organisation, tweaking of

don't own one, but I still know plenty of blind folks who do much

I never said that voice input wouldn't be good, just that having it as
the sole method would not be a good idea; not at all practical.
Hey Mary,
You are so perfectly right, and to tell you the truth it's not only blind
people who feels this way.
But fascion is playing many of it's tricks on people you know.
Also a dedicated device for special needs is wonderful.
For example with a Victor you don't really need to care about power l

Its an uncompressed format so the sound quality is better.

Good point you make about those seconds wasting time.
Today, so much time can be wasted deleting crap emails or social media
stuff, that wastes time in business or study.
Especially as it takes us longer to identify a not wanted message than a
sighted person.

Hi!
THanks Eden for letting us know that.
Then there will not be any trek in this house.
I rather use my Nokia 8 or moto g 5 for such purpose or my stream 2 for

warning like it use to do for me when i have wifi on.

Hi!
Yes you’re right Brian but they should have put better hardware into the stream.
I have had my for repair once and i think it needs to go on repair again.

No, the H1 doesn't have a Pre-record buffer but i'm sure some of the
other Zoom models do.
The H1 for waht it is presents a very basic audio recorder designed to
do a job and do it very well, record audio at a very bargain basement
price though there's nothing bargain basement about the record

Oh sorry to hear that. I never had issues with mine. But you're right that such

That argument is just ridiculous, have you ever used an Amazon Echo or a

your voice!
Obviously you use an App or a Web Page to set these devices up but once
that's done? Well you either talk and use the device or you fall
Apologies as I didn’t know you had an Amazon Echo but that’s as far as
the apology goes.
Remembering skills? I have skills on my Amazon Echo and yes, its

We'll agree to disagree then.
Humanware only wants to support a part of the market they know they can
extract money from, those Humanware can preach to and easily convince
that Humanware are the only solution on Planet Earth, a bit like the
