  • Recordings can be played back at a slower speed to make it easier to take written notes.
• Index mark feature
  • The handy index function lets you mark a particular point in a recording or playback for easy retrieval.
• Lightweight and portable design
  • Small and lightweight, you'll hardly notice it's with you. Pop it in your pocket or bag and take it anywhere. The durable casing and attractive, ergonomic design will make you want to carry it everywhere you go.
• Voice-activated recording
