Easy‑to‑handle dictation recorder

The WS‑852 digital voice recorder is a true master at note‑taking. Its stereo microphones feature a 90° layout to capture superb
stereo sound with every recording – whether a school lecture or a business meeting. If the speaker is talking softly, this audio
recorder’s Intelligent Auto mode increases the input level for easier listening with an even level of volume. The same goes if the
speaker is talking loudly. Of course, full convenience also takes top priority. That’s why the OLYMPUS WS‑852 voice recorder
offers Simple Mode, which displays only essential information and frequently‑used functions for faster operation.
