Main Features
● The DM-1 provides digital voice recording function and also functions as a digital music player
function (→ P.11).
● The DM-1 includes the Olympus Voice & Music DM-1 Utility Software, in which the DSS Player
software and MusicMatch Jukebox are bundled together.
● Connect the included USB cable to your computer for faster transmission speed.
●
Use the DM-1 as a SmartMedia Reader/Writer for fast exchange of other types of data.

minutes* of continuous LP mode recording. If you
buy a 128MB SmartMedia card, you can store
up to approximately 44 hours and 40 minutes*
of continuous recording on it.
* This is the recording time possible for
continuous recording of one file. File names and
file-location information take up some storage
space, so the actual total recording time that
can be stored will slightly decrease as the
number of files increases, becoming noticeable
if a large number of short recordings are made.
(Use the indicated remaining time and recorded
time only as references.)
● Can record and play audio files in DSS
(Digital Speech Standard) format.

the recording you want to hear.
Main features of the Digital Music Player
● Can play back music files in MP3 or WMA
format.
• You can play back music files in MP3 or WMA
format that you downloaded through the Internet
or from audio CDs using the included MusicMatch
Jukebox.

approximately 50 minutes to 2 hours of music
data. (The total storage time will vary depending
on the bit rate of each music file.)
● Uses a multidecoder system (→ P.60).
● Has built-in WOW (→ P.50-51).
•WOW, a product of sound-compositing
technology developed by SRS Labs, Inc., is
installed. WOW produces surround sound with
rich bass and sharp, clear sound contours.

SmartMedia
What is SmartMedia?
SmartMedia is a type of removable IC memory
card. With more memory than a floppy disk,
SmartMedia cards facilitate data exchange
with personal computers, and can be used to
store data.
SmartMedia that can be used with
the DM-1
If the included 64MB SmartMedia card is not
enough, please purchase another SmartMedia
card.
The following types of SmartMedia cards can
be used with the DM-1.
Voltage: 3.3 V or 3V
Memory Size: 4MB*, 8MB*, 16MB, 32MB,
64MB, 128MB
When using the DM-1 as a digital music player,
for copyright protection, a SmartMedia card
without an ID function cannot be used.
* Many of the 4MB and 8MB SmartMedia cards
available in stores do not have the ID function.
Notes
• Commercial 5 V SmartMedia cards cannot be used.
• When using the DM-1 as a digital voice recorder, a
SmartMedia card without an ID function can be
used, since this does not involve copyrighted
recordings.
• Never use SmartMedia cards with products that
are not compliant with the SSFDC Forum*
(including certain models of MP3 players).
* The SSFDC Forum is a voluntary organization
committed to promoting SmartMedia as a de facto
standard in the industry. The DM-1 adheres to a
format recommended by the SSFDC Forum.

64MB10 hr. 20 min.22 hr. 10 min.
128MB20 hr. 50 min.44 hr. 40 min.
* Recording time is calculated using a single speech
file recorded continuously. If speech files are
recorded intermittently, recording time may be
shorter than indicated.

(when the bit rate is between 160 kbps and 64 kbps)
**The possible recording time varies depending on
the bit rate of the music files. For example, a file
with a higher bit rate produces better sound quality;
however, the total possible recording time with such
files will be shorter.

Identification of Parts
Write-protect SmartMedia
A write-protect seal (supplied with SmartMedia
SmartMedia / Identification of Parts
card) can be attached to a SmartMedia card
to guard against accidental recording, erasing,
and formatting.
Write-protect
area
Attach the write-protect seal to the write-protect
area to prevent valuable data from being
erased accidentally.
Remove the write-protect seal before
recording or erasing.
Notes
• Attach the write-protect seal to the write-protect
area carefully, without letting the seal stick out, lift,
or peel.
• Do not use commercial seals.
• Write-protect seals cannot be reused.
• A dirty write-protect seal may disable the writeprotect feature. Wipe it with a soft, dry cloth.
• A SmartMedia card with a write-protect seal
attached to it may not be write-protected when
using the card with other products.
• Be sure to set the POWER/LOCK switch to OFF position when replacing batteries. Unloading the
batteries while the recorder is recording, erasing or otherwise accessing an audio or a music file may
corrupt the file.
• Be sure to replace both batteries at the same time.
• Never mix old and new batteries, or batteries of different types and/or brands.
• If it takes longer than 3 minutes to replace dead batteries, the internal rechargeable backup battery will
be exhausted, so you may have to reset the time when you load fresh batteries (→ P.14-15).
• Remove the batteries if you are not going to use the recorder for an extended period of time.
