Reviews:| Rating 4.0/5 from 30 reviews | | Light weight, easy to download without cord | | Rating: 5/5 2007-06-27 | Pros:
- very tiny
- light, less than a pack of gum, unobtrusive
- works well with external mike, purchased separtely
- good life on batteries
Cons:
- tiny little buttons
- internal mike picks up background noise easily
- probably want to carry in a hard case, like a small eye glasses case | | Convenient when it works | | Rating: 3/5 (2 out of 2 think this is helpful) 2007-02-24 | This recorder does a good job of picking up local voices. Don't put it in your pants pocket and walk around because about all you'll hear are swishing sounds. It seems to work well in transferring the files to a computer as it plugs into a USB port and looks like another portable drive.
My biggest problem has been the device turns off unexpectedly. After doing this about a dozen times, it finally got to where it wouldn't turn on at all so I ended up sending it back to the manufacturer for warrant repair. Fortunately, they were able to repair or replace it and it's currently working. | | Excellent recording tool | | Rating: 5/5 2007-01-10 | | I bought this small recorder for a class I was taking over a two day period and it out performed what I thought it would do. The recording was crystal clear and picked up the lecturer perfectly. I would break and then start again anywhere from 20 minutes to 1 1/2 hours later. I put each recording in a distinct section so that when I down loaded it a few days later onto my computer I knew exactly where in the lecture I needed to go to review anything that I was unclear about. I positioned myself in the front of the classroom but it would have been just as good from the middle of the room and ( maybe from the back, I didnt test it ), it was a large room. For the money I would recomend this little recorder. | | Olympus WS-2005 128 MB Digital Voice Recorder | | Rating: 5/5 2007-01-03 | | This product is the best and most amazing thing for someone in school. I tape the session, transfer over to the laptop, and then review the notes prior to class. I can tape from the back of the room and the quality is the same. You must be careful and not type around it, or it will also pick up that. I love it!! I've told my friends and they are also buying the product. | | Olympus WS200S General Review | | Rating: 4/5 (4 out of 4 think this is helpful) 2006-12-07 | | Only weakness I see is the speaker. It's just too weak needing more volumne range. Other than that this is an awesome digital recorder, small, light weight great battery life, easy to down load files etc. I'd buy it again but to get a 5 star rating they need to upgrade the speaker. |
Editorials:Product DescriptionWith up to 55 hours recording time, a built-in stereo microphone, and a compact and slick design, the WS-200S has a lot going for it. But when you consider the recorder can also be separated from its battery unit and plugged directly into a PC's USB port - without a USB cable - for quick and convenient downloading of audio, documents, images and more, you'll also see it has a lot going for you, too.
Features:- Professional-grade digital voice recorder
- Record up to 56 hours of digital audio
- 128 MB of internal flash memory
- Can be used as a USB mass storage device
- Convenient USB 2.0 direct design for fast data transfer
