{Artisoft's ArtiScribe (tm) Digital Dictation System}
[{Preliminary Specifications}]
Now any LAN workstation with an Artisoft Sounding Board adapter
installed can become a dictation or transcription station! The ArtiScribe
Digital Dictation System combines the crystal clear digital recordings of
Sounding Board with the powerful efficiency of a LAN, to provide you with
a flexible, easy-to-use dictation system.
Dictating can be done at any time, no matter what text mode DOS
application you happen to be running at the moment. All you have to do
is pop up ArtiScribe's control pad, tell it to start recording, and then begin
speaking. You can even continue to record while you return to your
original program. When finished, simply use the control pad to stop
recording, and your piece is complete.
Sending your dictated piece to a transcriptionist -- or to other ArtiScribe
users -- is as simple and as quick as picking the names from a list. If you
wish, you can assign priorities and add spoken or textual descriptions to
your ArtiScribe documents.
Transcribing is just as easy because ArtiScribe works in the background
while you type -- from within any text-mode DOS word processor. Just pop
up the ArtiScribe control pad to see a list of all of the ArtiScribe documents
that have been sent to you, including their dates, lengths, descriptions and
priorities. After you've made your selection, ArtiScribe will continue to play
the selected piece while you return to the word processor and type. No
more awkward footpedals or clumsy buttons, switches and knobs -- you
can control playback without lifting a finger. Simply SAY the playback
commands and ArtiScribe will obey. You can even control the speed of
playback to your own comfort level, without causing the recorded voice to
sound like Darth Vader or the Chipmunks.
Because ArtiScribe utilizes Sounding Board's digital recording capabilities,
there are no tapes to wear out, so voice reproduction will always be of
outstanding quality. Doing away with tapes also eliminates the inefficient
and insecure physical handling necessary with traditional systems. And,
since every piece is stored separately, there is no time-consuming
scanning to find a particular piece from among many on a tape.
ArtiScribe lets you expand your system as your needs expand -- all for a
very affordable cost. Just add an Artisoft Sounding Board adapter and the
ArtiScribe software for every LAN workstation you want to convert to an
ArtiScribe workstation. ArtiScribe has been designed to be compatible with
nearly all network operating systems, although, of course, users of
Artisoft's LANtastic will enjoy enhanced installation and message
notification features.
