Digital portables
Article Abstract:
Digital dictation machines, despite their advantages, have not yet made an impact on the dictation machine market, which continues to be dominated by analogue equipment. The main problem with digital dictating machines is their large size and they are also complicated to operate. However, once the equipment has been mastered, the sound quality from digital dictation is far superior to their analogue counterparts. The main makers of digital machines are Philips, Grundig, Olympus and Sanyo.
