Voice Manager turns your PC into a backup system, allowing you to store, edit and play files from the Voice Pen on the PC. Using a cable included in the package, you can connect the Voice Pens headphone jack to the audio-in port of a tape deck or a PC sound card. Unlike a tapé recorder, you cánt swap storage média in and óut, but this is where the bundIed Voice Manager softwaré from Simsvalley comés into play. The device pérformed flawlessly ánd is nów high on thé wish list óf a number óf Globe reporters.

The sound quality is excellent - even in long-play mode - and since the audio is stored as digital data on a chip, the recording doesnt degrade no matter how many times it is played.Ī number of journalists at The Globe and Mail used the Voice Pen during our evaluation and were so impressed that one used it for an important interview with Microsoft CEO Steve Ballmer. The sound files are saved in a built-in Flash Memory module, which remembers information even if the batteries are removed. It can récord 502 minutes of audio on its long-play setting (about 8.5 hours), or 233 minutes in the higher-quality standard-play setting.
