My Philips VoiceTracer was previously recognised by Windows 10 laptop but is no longer. Have tried all the connection alternatives suggested and either nothing at all happens or the laptop says the latest device is not recognised. Hope you can help, Jack

I have encountered the problem of the pc (win10) not recognizing the 4010 as an external drive with the original cable from the package. I have used a random cable (much longer than the original one) and it worked.

I have DVT1250. When I go into the Menu, once I go into a submenu, such as Recording Quality, I cannot navigate using the arrows to Quality Settings or any other option. It only stays at the top item of Mic Sensitivity. If I go into Mic Sensitivity it only stays on High. I cannot navigate to Low.

Hi Kelly, thank you for your question. Once you have gotten to the menu item you would like to access using the arrows, press the record button to open the menu, and then use the volume buttons on the side of the recorder to navigate up and down.

Hi Karen, I am sorry to hear you are experiencing difficulties. In order to uncover the source of the issue, we would need to troubleshoot and look into this further. Please call customer service at 1-844-222-3055 with a detailed description of the problem. Thank you!

Hello, I am using the DVT1150 Voice Tracer and I am unable to record. It tells me that it is full and yet I have emptied all the files on the computer. should I delete each empty folder as well? I cannot find any other files to delete other than the manual. why does it still tell me it is full?

Memory formatting:

Formatting the memory deletes all recordings and files saved on the device.

You can use this feature to delete all data and format the selected memory.

1 In stop mode (start-up screen), press MENU for at least two seconds.

2 Press e to select the FORMAT function.

3 Select OK by pressing h/b.

4 Press the j key to exit the menu

Hi, I am using a DVT2500 Voice Tracer and want to transfer recordings from internal memory to my mac. The device is not recognised by my mac as it is not showing up in Finder. However, the Voice Tracer screen shows it is connected to a USB port. I have tried using another USB port, another mac, another Windows, changing different cables. Nothing works. The Voice Tracer is not recognised by any of the mac or Windows. I need to transfer the recordings out from the internal memory. Hope you can help! Thank you!

I have a Philips Voice Tracer that I use for recordings of my research interviews. I have been able to copy and save my recordings to my computer every day but since Monday the new recordings do not display on my computer. They are on the recorder and I can listen to them but as soon as I open the VOICE file in file explorer only the old recordings display. I need to send the recordings to a transcriber but I cannot send the recorder as I need to continue recording new interviews. All my interviews was recorded in file A and and the new ones show in file A on the recorder but not in file A or any of the other files on the computer.

I transfer music files from my PC to a Philips 5500 in either the Voice or Music folders, and while they can be recognised and accessed via the computer, the 5500 does no recognise they are there. Why?

Hi there. I have a VoiceTracer DV 2510. I was adjusting the date, and now I found that after doing a test recording, I only can hear the second part of the recording. I tried on my windows pc and the whole recording is there. Is there a way to fix this on my device? thanks.

Hello, thank you for your comment. Have you checked, if all folders are also empty? A Philips Voice Tracer has 4 different folders. If this does not solve it, please send us a message with your contact details and problem description to sale...@speech.com, so we can further look into this for you.

I have a new VoiceTracer DVT2050, and I cannot get any computer to recognize the recorder. I tried a different cord, and I have the same problem. What other options do I have? My operating system is Windows 11

I recharged my VoiceTracer yesterday by plugging the USB into my computer. Now, the battery is full, but I cannot turn the device off. It continues to show the picture of the now fully recharged battery, and the led-light stays on. None of the buttons work. Please help.

Solved: My Windows 10 PC was no longer recognizing the VoiceTracer as a drive in spite of the VoiceTracer screen showing that it was connected. I tried several different USB A to C type cables with no luck. I then tried a USB C to C style cable and it worked. You will need a computer with a USB C connector to try this. Hope this helps someone.

The speech recognition software produces extremely accurate results thanks to its integrated nuance software. It also offers a workflow management system and automation for enhanced productivity. The superb audio quality, high accuracy rate, and easy hardware administration make it a real power tool!

Speech recognition as a stand-alone solution offers a number of important benefits. Not least is the fact that it can significantly reduce the time it takes for professional workers to input text. It is generally acknowledged that we speak on average up to seven times faster than we type, so the production of a wide range of documents, from reports and contracts through to simple letters, is considerably faster using speech rather than the keyboard.

Stand-alone systems utilise front-end speech recognition to convert the spoken word to text. Also known as interactive speech recognition, this is the process of creating documentation that is instantaneously presented to the user on-screen in real-time.

Some, although not all, systems support front-end speech recognition which can also be used to directly insert text into existing software applications, such as Microsoft Word, Outlook or case management systems.

So far, so good. But it is here where some of the limitations of the stand-alone approach emerge. Crucially, it does not cater particularly well for the growing requirement to work remotely or on the go, since typically there is no mobile app feature included as part of the solution.

Certain steps in the overall document production process can also prove problematic. For example, in most systems the voice recording is not stored once the text has been transcribed, so if the assistant has a query at some later point when they are proofreading the document, they are unable to go back to the original recording to check what was actually said.

In addition, a document can frequently go through a number of stages, e.g. initial draft, editing, comments, revised drafts, final version and approval (possibly by a number of people), so monitoring its overall progress can be a challenge.

The integration of speech recognition with workflow can do much to address these issues whilst building on the very significant benefits that the stand-alone solution can deliver, as we will see below.
