Olympus recorder WS-852 + ME52 microphone, grey

High-quality dictation device, audio recorder, notetaker in one
Regardless of your needs for either business or pleasure, the new WS-852 digital voice recorder combines high-performance stereo recording with smart functionality. This not only makes it a pleasure to use, but also easy to handle in any situation.

ME52W Mini Mono Microphone
The ME-52W Noise Cancelling Microphone reduces ambient noise to enable even clearer recordings of targeted sound. It connects directly to the microphone input jack and with its tilt mechanism the direction of the microphone can be adjusted. It comes with a foam windscreen, an extension cord (1m; 3.3ft) and tie-pin clip to enable you to attach the microphone to your clothes.

Stereo feeling in every recording
The low-noise directional stereo microphones with a 90° layout deliver a superb stereo feeling – enabling you to feel even the smallest details of the meeting. Regardless of where the person speaking is located or the direction of speech, you can clearly capture the information.

Intelligent auto mode
To make listening to your recordings more comfortable, Intelligent Auto Mode automatically adjusts the recording level to match the volume of the sound source. When a speaker is talking very loudly, the recorder reduces the input level, and for soft voices the recorder increases the input level – to always provide an even level of volume.

Made for beginners. Just as perfect for advanced.
With two different display modes, you can use your voice recorder even if you are a beginner. Simple Mode displays only essential information in large font and limits the menu options to frequently-used functions. For advanced users, full functionality of menu options is available in Normal Mode.

The simplest way to save data
Save data easily and conveniently with the built-in USB connector. Simply slot it into your PC or Mac to transfer voice recordings from the device to an external hard disk drive. You can also use it like a USB stick to share documents. For the WS-853, the USB connector has an additional internal battery charge function for further peace of mind.

Less noise. More sound.
The Low-cut Filter efficiently eliminates lower-frequency noise such as air conditioners, projectors and outdoor wind to allow for even clearer voice recordings.

Optimised settings for optimal results
Ensure fail-proof, high-quality recordings by choosing the scene in which you want to record. Your recorder then instantly sets the right audio recording parameters. You can also add simple accessories to the device for perfect telephone recording and for converting analogue cassettes to digital.

Convenience and clarity in every recording
A built-in stand on the back of the audio recorder makes desktop use even easier. It helps to reduce surface noise and keeps your recordings perfectly clear.

Never miss out on anything with longer battery life
With reduced power consumption and an extended battery life, the WS Series digital voice recorder is more convenient than ever.

Enjoy clearer playback of vocal recordings
By cutting out the low and high frequency ranges of a voice recording, Voice Filter clarifies and enhances the sound of the words being spoken. This makes it easier to understand the speaker during playback.

Find what you’re looking for. Fast.
Saved audio files are automatically marked with the date and displayed in calendar format, making it quick and easy to search for files. Plus, a dedicated calendar button allows for immediate viewing.

Learn foreign languages with ease
Speech Shadowing is an effective way to learn a foreign language – allowing you to repeat what you hear right after hearing it. This mode combines audio playback with silent playback in succession to help you easily learn any language.
