tell me about the dm520. is it a multi track editer? -----Original Message----- From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Robert Logue Sent: Monday, December 28, 2009 6:43 AM To: PC Audio Discussion List Subject: Re: Digital recorders again - Plextalk Pocket and Olympus DS-71
I found the software that comes with the dm-520 pretty accessible. A few things are slightly trickey but for the most part it works fine with Jaws 11. I'm only having trouble with the sound editor. Not sure how to select regions with the keyboard. The options dialog needs the Jaws cursor.
