General

The WS-831 is an ideal handheld recorder for everyday use. It's lightweight, compact, easy to use and creates wonderfully clear recordings. Your recordings are stored on an internal memory of 2 GB. The recording quality can be adjusted - the lowest quality (LP record mode) allows you to record for up to 493 hours. You can extend the memory via a micro SD/SDHC card of up to 32 GB.

WS-831: quality recordings

The WS-831 allows you to effectively create quality recordings. It is fitted with a low-cut filter and noise suppression, these drastically attenuate background noise for a clearer, more intelligible speech recording. Furthermore, the WS-831 features scene selection - you can choose from five different recording situations, after which the recorder automatically selects the optimal recording parameters.

Files

You can store your files on the WS-831 in five different folders, with 200 files each. In order to ensure a clear overview, Olympus have designed a practical search function. Stored audio files are digitally labelled with their recording date and represented in a calendar, so that you'll easily track the one you need with the special calendar button.
