Product Description
Amazon.com Review
For convenient dictation anywhere, anytime, check out the Memorex MB002 digital voice recorder. This lightweight, compact unit fits easily in the palm of your hand, has a recording capacity of up to 16 minutes, and stores up to 99 different messages.
This lightweight recorder is comfortable to hold and easy to operate with one hand. Record, play, search, and mode buttons are located on the side of the unit, with the on/off switch and erase button on top. The LCD includes a battery indicator, message number, folder location, and minute counter. While performing specific operations, such as erase, lock, record, and play, the LCD displays additional icons related to these functions.
The MB002 can record automatically by voice activation (VOX). Alternatively, you can record a message manually by pressing the record button, and then pressing the record button again to stop recording. Press the play button to listen to your messages. You can skip messages during playback by pressing the search button twice. When you skip, the recorder beeps and the message counter changes. To play back only the first 5 seconds of each message, use the Intro function for quick scanning. The MB002 has two folders (A and B), and each can store up to 8 minutes of recordings. You can erase messages one at a time or an entire folder at once, or prevent erasure with the lock feature. The recorder also includes volume adjustment and an earphone jack.
In our tests of the MB002, we found the optimal recording distance was between 1 inch and 2 feet from the microphone. Sound quality was only adequate, as recorded voices were sometimes unclear. In these cases, words sounded fuzzy but were still comprehensible. To test the VOX feature, we pressed the mode button until the VOX icon appeared in the LCD, as the instructions directed. We pressed the search button to turn on the VOX function and pressed the mode button again to set it. However, despite repeated attempts, we were unable to turn on the VOX function. We do not know if the instructions contained an error or if our test unit was defective. --Emily Bakko

- this recorder holds 16 minutes/99 messages as stated in the Amazon.com Editorial Review, NOT 32/198 as currently (10/11/00) listed in the Features
- in order to get the VOX feature to work, you have to press the RECORD/STOP button to get it started after following the instructions in the book (it will then record for 5 seconds and then stop until you speak into it and so on until you press RECORD/STOP again - keeping it all in a single message)
