Product Description
The Pearlcorder S831 Microcassette recorder makes superior dictation performance as simple as talking about it. This easy-to-use, voice-actuated unit begins recording the moment it senses sound, and it stops recording as soon as the sound does. High-quality sound gathering ensures clear reproduction, and convenient E-mark indexing allows transcribers to quickly identify the end of each document. A simple slide-switch control makes using the S831 Microcassette recorder a cinch. All you need to do in order to play, stop, listen, or review is slide the control to the appropriate function and you're on your way.

Featuring a convenient slide-switch for quick and simple operation, index marking to recall important audio passages, and voice activation, the S831 is an excellent recording choice for the busy professional.

The built-in microphone is discreet, but powerful, and clearly records important information from meetings, conferences, interviews, and other encounters where you want to make sure you did not miss a beat. For speedy reminders of what was just recorded, the S831 allows you to listen efficiently with a playback option that is 25-percent faster than real time. With the voice activation, the device will sense sound and start/stop recording automatically, so you'll never waste valuable tape on dead air. And with special indexing, you can access important recordings quickly with the click of a button.

The built-in microphone has conference or dictation sensitivity for use in almost any professional environment. There are two selectable recording speeds -- the faster speed makes clearer recordings for reproduction, while the slower speed is perfect for voice memos and audio note taking. This recorder also features an auto shut-off to conserve battery power, a tape counter, and jacks that provide connection for earphone, microphone, and external power.
