Olympus VN-4100PC Digital Voice Recorder

The Olympus VN-4100PC is the latest in the line of Olympus digital voice recorder and a versatile digital voice recorder that features 144 hours of recording time using its 256 MB internal flash memory. The voice recorder lets you transfer the audio files to your PC with the included USB PC Link, at good transfer speeds.

The Olympus VN-4100PC also features file management function, multiple recording modes selection, timer based recoding and voice activation modes. The four recording modes this product has are XHQ for extra high quality, HQ for high-quality, and SP and LP modes for extended recording.

This is one of the best digital voice recorders and is best suitable for tasks such as recording a meeting, a lecture, making your own verbal to-do list and recording a speech or presentation. Since it’s a voice recorder, it’s not good at recording and playback of music. However, once the recording is transferred to your PC, you can always transfer it onto your iPod and listen to your recordings on your iPod or any other media player.

Imagine - you record a lecture in your classroom, transfer the recording to your PC and then onto your iPod. Now you can listen to the lecture while you travel and over a period of time you could have a collection of all the lectures you have attended. Even if you have not attended, someone who has this product could share it with you, or your friend could take your recorder to the classroom and get the lecture recorded for you. Cool, isn’t it?

The Olympus digital voice recorder is available for as low as $49.
