 Glad I went ahead and bought the KitFeb 18, 2006
By JP
I recently purchased the transcription kit, even in the face of advice to not do so, and I'm very pleased that I did. I use a Sony ICD-P110 digital voice recorder, with version 3 of the Digital Voice Editor software from Sony. I only bought the transcription kit because it was almost half price, as I was unsure about how well it would work.
I have not been disappointed. The only problem is that if you save the MSWord document you're working on, the digital recording is reset to start playing from zero again. I think the save comand is activated in both programmes. I simply note my expired playback time before saving the Word document. I have also been able to play back mp3 files.
I am however very pleased with the overall package.

Great ProductJun 21, 2009
By Ginger Spanos
I purchased this Sony Product to go with Sony Digital Voice Recorder ICD-PX720. I currently transcribe at home for 2 doctors. This is almost effortless when it comes to transcribing. I would also recommend the Sony Digital Voice Recorder listed above. The digital sound quality is superb and crystal clear. No hissing noise that you would find if you were using microcassettes. I researched this for about a month and this was the best product and price point to change over to digital. I made an excellent choice buying these 2 products. My purchasing experience from Amazon was excellent. Ginger Spanos from Paintsville, Kentucky.

 Problems from the very beginningOct 16, 2009
By Weaver
I don't usually bother to write these things because I'm don't expect much from products made today. They usually work for a while and then break and I go on. But I have had nothing but issues with this package since I purchased it for the office. The problem is that for no known reason, while typing in WORD and using the foot pedal, the audio file that I am transcribing suddenly jumps back to start. It happens randomly and without apparent cause. I spent hours on the phone with customer service (who were very, very friendly, if not always knowledgeable)only to have a product that makes me so angry I usually just give up. I've even upgraded to the most recent software package and changed the setting as per instructed to help resolve the issue, but it continues. I've tried it on different computers and with different staff members. We do not have this issue with our Olympus digital transcribing kit.

 Completely confusedNov 20, 2009
By C. Mitchell
When I bought the product I had high hopes for what it would do. I am master's student trying to transcribe my interviews for my thesis. I wanted a product to take my recorder interviews and turn them into written word. This software does not do that. All the software does is allow for you speed up, stop and rewind a recording with your foot. This foot pedal somewhat eases the process but if you did not use a Sony IC recorder the software will not read anything that is not a .wav file. My recorder of course saves the audio files as .wma. So I then had to download conversion software!! The headphones provided with the software and foot pedal are of poor quality especially for the price the product costs. I ended up having to combine the transcription software with Dragon Naturally Speaking to transcribe my interview. It has been a big hassle. I would not recommend this item for if you are expecting a faster and more efficient process.

Fine productAug 24, 2007

I was able to use this pedal with .wav files downloaded from an Olympus recorder, no problem.
Pedal works fine, software is adequate.
I have transcribed approx 3 hours of recording so far.
