Product Description

 
Stereo recording captures every word. In addition to capturing over 136 hours of meetings, interviews and other critical information expected of digital recorders, you can download and create podcasts with the DS-40. The super-high-quality sound is also great for listening to audio books and music – it’s the ideal all-in-one audio device.
