With its capacity of stereo recording and its intelligent features, the new WS-853 recorder has everything to become your favorite assistant on a daily basis. The noise cancelling feature is particularly useful to enjoy a sound more clear and precise in all situations.<br><br>DESIGN<br>SUPERB STEREO QUALITY WITH TRUE STEREO MIC<br>With two directional microphones positioned at a 90 degree layout, expect a high quality recording with an authentic stereo experience. Our microphones differentiate the position and the distance of the speakers in meetings and conferences, capturing every detail, allowing you to feel as if you are actually in the recording scene.<br><br>SOUND QUALITY<br>VOICE BALANCER IMPROVES AUDIO PLAYBACK QUALITY<br>When recordings contain multiple speakers, the Voice Balancer makes smaller voices louder and ensures that louder voices stay within a given level, providing playback where everyone can be heard. This comes in handy when recording sound sources from multiple positions, by eliminating the lower and higher frequencies, the voice of the speakers are even more enhanced.<br><br>PERFORMANCE<br>INTELLIGENT AUTO MODE AUTOMATICALLY ADJUSTS MICROPHONE SENSITIVITY<br>With previous models, it was necessary to adjust the microphone sensitivity according to the recording environment, such as the number of people or the size of the meeting space. The new Intelligent Auto Mode function makes it easier for users by automatically adjusting the microphone sensitivity according to the volume of the speaker. To set this function, select Auto for the recording level from the menu.<br><br>VERSATILITY<br>SIMPLE MODE, PERFECT FOR BEGINNERS<br>With two built-in display modes this recorder supports various user levels. The Simple Mode supports beginners by having the recorder display only the necessary information in large font. It also limits the functions in the menu to those which are frequently used. For advanced users, the Normal Mode with full functionality is recommended.<br><br>CONNECTIVITY<br>USB DIRECT CONNECTION – CABLE FREE<br>Transfer data conveniently anytime with the built-in USB connector.

Ease Of Use

Recording

This device is less confusing & easier to use than my previous Olympus digital recorder, plus it has much more memory, & more faithful recording of all sounds in the recording environment. I plan to do an oral history of my family's history via my mother's recollections.

walmart.com

This is just what I needed. I figured out how to work it without even reading the directions. I am *technologically challenged*. LOL!
With the extra GB's on the additional sound card, I have more than ample recording power, and this is lightweight, and easy to carry.
Great product for the money, and just so easy to use. I highly recommend this.

Made for the technologically challenged among us

This product is so wonderful! I attended a very important assembly and convention and I didn't miss a beat with this recorder. I'm telling you, it picks up everything and its very clear and easy to use. It has great features; it records for hours; does good on battery life. Already telling my friends to invest in such a product!

Records everything!

Theirs a whole lot of things his recorder can do and it's so clear, takes out background noice nice !

Everything I expected

I have had several digital recorders in the past and many were Olympus models. This one comes with more features than the others and it has a very good audio play back sound. I am very impressed with the quality of the sound for the price.

Fantastic recording device

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My husband used this same model of recorder for several years and wanted to get the same one to replace the old one.

Easy to use

Olympus has a real winner here.

It uses only 1 AAA battery, has a built-in, pop-out USB connector for your computer (no cables), micro-SD slot (I plugged in an 8-gig SD stick to expand the total memory to 10 gigabytes), saves recordings to mp3 files, has a calendar format that lets you search files by any specific date, 3 microphone sensitivity settings, and a comprehensive menu system.

With the recording sensitivity set to “high”, I could record background voices many feet away. The device lets you switch back and forth between the micro-SD memory and the factory-set memory for managing how and where you want to save files. Maybe the best feature, it records in Stereo and plays music back in Stereo.

Awesome Value

Very nice product. Compact and easy to operate. However, I would say that the recording volume is not high enough. It is essential to transfer the recording to a computer to hear it properly.

To try

Still  trying to figure it out   anyone know?

Good quality recorder. Bad quality description. Website advertises rechargeable battery. This model does not have one. Also advertises earbuds. Does not have those either. Again, it's a great recorder but it was a let down not to get what I paid for.
