Artisoft's Artiscribe Digital Dictation System

Preliminary Specifications

Now any LAN workstation with an Artisoft Sounding BoardTM 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 and it will give you a list of all of the ArtiScribe
documents which have been sent to you, including 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 listen. 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
required 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.
