Why is a dictaphone used?


The question may seem ludicrous, but it has the merit of being interesting. At a time when the smartphone replaces a whole range of devices, the questioning about the use of the dictaphone is legitimate.

 

But fortunately, the Dictaphone is a multi-purpose device. By definition, the dictaphone is a device intended primarily for thevoice recording. This makes the quality of the rendering optimal in this situation. With this in mind, the dictaphone is mainly used in both professional and personal situations.

 

In professional life, the dictaphone has its place. Indeed, it is a device usually associated with journalists. But other professions do not deprive themselves of it: doctors, writers... In either case, it used to take vocal notes that can be listened to later with a view to copying them and which can be used as an archive. This is particularly true at meetings. The dictaphone also plays the role of easily accessible notebook where ideas are recorded.

 

In private and personal life, the use of the dictaphone is not far removed from that which it has in professional life. It is always used to take voice notes, but for studies. Indeed, it is very convenient for students who wish to listen to their courses quietly at home, while enjoyinggood audio quality. The best models can also be used for multimedia purposes. If the dictaphone does not shine to record sounds and noises, it offers a relative quality. This is the case of sound recordings for amateur video montages (such as those published in podcast), recording a concert or a singing session with friends. 

 

In conclusion a dictaphone is very useful for recording sail that don't show too many constraints.
