FAQ
1. How do I play the recorded files?
The recorder stores the audio capture in .
WAV files
. Waveform Audio File Format (WAVE, or
more commonly known as WAV due to its filename extension), is a Microsoft and IBM audio file
format standard for storing an audio bit stream on PCs.
VLC Player will allow you to play them on your Windows PC and also on MAC.
Most other audio players require you to install third party software ("codecs") that enable support for
the particular type of file you wish to play. Not so with VLC Player - it includes everything you need.
Simply download and run the installer and you will be able to play your recorded audio files right
away. You must enter on https://www.videolan.org/vlc/index.html (or simply search VLC player on
Google), and click DONWNLOAD VLC Player. Choose the right version depending on what kind of
device do you use: windows PC, Mac, your smartphone, tablet etc.
2. How to transfer the files from the recorder into computer?
When you connect the
dotON
voice recorder to a computer, it will act exactly like any other USB
flash drive. So, first you must turn OFF the device and after that connect it to the computer
Here are the step-by-step instructions as well:
1.
First, insert the USB memory stick into an available USB port.
2.
On Windows, this will bring up a window showing the memory stick is now seen as a drive on your
computer (e.g., "Removable Disk" E: drive). You'll also get a menu of options for using the device.
Select "Open folder to view files" at the bottom.
Alternatively on Windows, you can also get to the drive by going to your Computer (or My Computer)
folder and finding the new drive letter there. This is also similar to how you would find the drive on
Mac: open up a Finder window and look for the new mounted drive under "Devices."
3.
To copy files from the USB memory stick, select your files and drag them to your desktop or, for
better organization, a folder in Windows Explorer (or Finder on Mac).
4.
When you're done, right-click on the drive and select "Eject" so you can safely remove the drive.
Notes:
On Windows, if it's the first time you're using the memory stick, the computer will say it's
installing the hardware. You can open up the drive by going to your Computer folder.
