I recently purchased the transcription kit, even in the face of advice to not do so, and I'm very pleased that I did. I use a Sony ICD-P110 digital voice recorder, with version 3 of the Digital Voice Editor software from Sony. I only bought the transcription kit because it was almost half price, as I was unsure about how well it would work.

I have not been disappointed. The only problem is that if you save the MSWord document you're working on, the digital recording is reset to start playing from zero again. I think the save comand is activated in both programmes. I simply note my expired playback time before saving the Word document. I have also been able to play back mp3 files.

I am however very pleased with the overall package.

Great Product June 21, 2009
I purchased this Sony Product to go with Sony Digital Voice Recorder ICD-PX720. I currently transcribe at home for 2 doctors. This is almost effortless when it comes to transcribing. I would also recommend the Sony Digital Voice Recorder listed above. The digital sound quality is superb and crystal clear. No hissing noise that you would find if you were using microcassettes. I researched this for about a month and this was the best product and price point to change over to digital. I made an excellent choice buying these 2 products. My purchasing experience from Amazon was excellent. Ginger Spanos from Paintsville, Kentucky.

I don't usually bother to write these things because I'm don't expect much from products made today. They usually work for a while and then break and I go on. But I have had nothing but issues with this package since I purchased it for the office. The problem is that for no known reason, while typing in WORD and using the foot pedal, the audio file that I am transcribing suddenly jumps back to start. It happens randomly and without apparent cause. I spent hours on the phone with customer service (who were very, very friendly, if not always knowledgeable)only to have a product that makes me so angry I usually just give up. I've even upgraded to the most recent software package and changed the setting as per instructed to help resolve the issue, but it continues. I've tried it on different computers and with different staff members. We do not have this issue with our Olympus digital transcribing kit.

Foot pedal
The pedal does stick, but I find it helpful and am happy to have it now that it came down in price. I have to type lengthy Meeting Minutes and this was necessary.

Very helpful, but took some time to learn how to use it.
This transcription kit has been very helpful to me. I am transcribing interviews for my dissertation and the foot petal has cut down my time spent in front of the computer... Read more

So Far Not So Good...
This product is great in theory, but so far I haven't been able to use it. It does not appear to be compatible with my Sony ICD-UX71 digital voice recorder. Read more

Not a good one
The headset is very uncomfortable and the footpedal will not work with the program I need it for. I've been transcribing for 31 years and I am not happy about this product at all.

Pedal works fine, software is adequate. Read more
