RE: Blaze EZ Daisy multi-player with OCR
Dain, they don't say much about it either. The one thing that we do know about recording that I for one care about, well make this 2 things we know are that it does PCM WAV, and that it will do stereo. I also find it epic that it'll do DAISY 3. But the kinds of things he wants to know you only find in the manual. Also, they are going to talk about it in Accessible World's tech talk on Monday. He can ask them then I guess. Even Plextalk never talked about the Mike pre-amps though. They would say what internal mikes they used, they use to recommend mikes for you to use rtoo. Everything. Hell, they'd even tell you the CD drive they used. Note, they didn't with the awesome and epic PTR2 I don't think. But you could tell it was a Panasonic drive when you hooked it up to your PC. Perhaps it'll be the same for this. He wants to know the guts of this very interesting recorder and player. I say as long as it sounds christal clear, and the pre-amps are christle clear and it has an awesome stereo image for recording, it's epic. One last tthing. They don't tell us the sample rate nor the bit death However, one should always assume with these DAISY recorders, 44 thousand 100 KHZ 16 bit. It would be cool if one did 48 KHZ 16 bit at least for once. Then we've moved on from CD to DVD at least.

Thanks hammit, You rite, and it always take time to find out those spex. And my experience often with these companies is that they mostly don't deliver up to that standards. PlexTalk openly said they won't higher their bit rate or sampling rate of any of the recorders currently. So why would hims be different since they really did not go far enough with the booksense. The PlexTalk range record the best of them all, and even with them its not as nice as you would get with Olympus or zoom. I will do a podcast on the hv-e5 and will post a link here once it rich the blind geek zone. I got one up there already about the dm620. Its a player made in china with a nice design and support most formats in one device like nun of the other players. You can even play .dat video files.

RE: Blaze EZ Daisy multi-player with OCR
Interesting. It's able to play DAT files ha? Epic! I have a few of those. I'm so disappointed to hear that. Here I was imagining a super epic PTR3 if you will, that had a Blu-Ray writer, that could actually write Blu-Ray disks, at dfull 96 KHZ 24 Bit PCM either in DAISY 3 or just the WAV files. Lol. Oh yeah, you could either use CF cards like always, or SD cards. What's more, it does all the cool stuff. Even stuff as simple as high lighting stuff and speaking the page numbers autonomously like the Victor can. Now isn't that one hell of an epic recorder? I would even licence Sound-Devices guts for it. Lol. Now that's mad epic. Even the whole Phantum power thing would make it epic. Like mom says, one doesn't pay to dreem. Lol. But I'm serious though.

Re: Blaze EZ Daisy multi-player with OCR
Okay, well I do have a Hims Inc product that records so I can only go by 2 things, what my recorder offers and assumption, that is to say that the product described here will offer as good as my older Voicesense does or better. On my Voicesense I can specify sampling rate and so on for the recording I wish to make so I'm assuming you'll be able to do that with the product described in the original post, Hims Inc usually makes products to progress and go forward and not backwards.

And my experience often with these companies is that they mostly don't deliver up to that standards. PlexTalk openly said they won't higher their bit rate or sampling rate of any of the recorders currently. So why would hims be different since they really did not go far enough with the booksense. The PlexTalk range record the best of them all, and even with them its not as nice as you would get with Olympus or zoom. I will do a podcast on the hv-e5 and will post a link here once it rich the blind geek zone. I got one up there already about the dm620.
