Why Your Microphone Matters Most Now

AI has turned speech recognition and dictation into an everyday productivity tool, but not every mic keeps up. Is yours holding you back?

Purpose-Built Microphones for Speech

Most microphones are built for music or gaming, not for professional dictation. A unidirectional cardioid mic best captures the vocal frequencies that speech recognition relies on.

AI Against Ever-Present Environmental Noise

Dictation software must hear your voice, not the room. New AI chipsets for audio processing enhance your speech, discarding office chatter, background music, and even your PC's speaker playback while you dictate.

Near-Perfect Dictation Accuracy Adds Up Fast

Even a small improvement in accuracy with a purpose-built speech microphone means hundreds fewer corrections across a full working day — saving time on every document you dictate.

Comfort Matters over Long Dictation Sessions

A professional desktop mic lets you dictate naturally from a distance — nothing to hold or wear, no batteries to recharge, no cable fuss, no radiation near your head, no repositioning when you lean back or change to a second screen.

Your Dictation Workflow Travels with You

In today's mobile life, a modular, portable, travel-ready mic provides the same level of dictation accuracy anywhere: at your desk, in a hospital, in court, at a client's office.

One Expandable Microphone, a Solid Investment

A modular, expandable mic is a durable, high-value, long-term asset. The right model for your dictation needs pays for itself through greater comfort, fewer errors, higher productivity, now and in the future.

Pure Audio Chipset

USB VoiceMatic

The AI Audio Chipset

Built into our USB microphones and USB MultiAdapter, it process and refines your voice before the software hears it, for the following purposes:

Zero-latency transcription

All processing happens on board, not in your computer, so Dragon and other speech recognition engines receive an already crystal-clear signal and turn it into text instantly. A substantial benefit.

Noise cancelling

Like your earbuds, but tuned for dictation: it strips out most chatter and music, even from your own PC speakers. It excells in the busiest open-plan office.

Self-adjusting

Automatic gain control and smart voice equalization adapt to the way you dictate, soft or loud, with nothing to configure.

Steady at a distance

As you move away, it lifts your words, not the background noise: ideal for medical consultations, law firms and business.
