Yep thanks and I did have a DM7 for a little while, worst ever Olympus recorder I owned voice TTS or no Voice Tts,. The recorder felt cheap and the day I got the recorder bits started breaking off. In the end I was perfectly happy to throw the recorder away and go back to the DM4. Now the Olympus LS-P4 is here there’s no going back foo a DM4 for me, just too many advantages to be had with the DM4.
