Lanier station w/Comcast digital voice

Posted By: truffle on 2008-04-11
In Reply to:

Will this work?  A couple of years ago I tried a Lanier with Vonage and it didn't.  I don't want to go through the setup trouble only to be disappointed again.  I really need more minutes than my 5000 per month with Qwest.  Has the technology changed to make the Lanier compatible with internet phone service?  Thanks if you can help me.

Lanier station with Comcast Digital
I have used this for quite some time with no problems. I have also used a C-phone and Voice Solutions Digital Workstation with Comcast and it works just fine. The only thing you may have a problem with is having dictation cut out periodically or what sounds like "choppy" dictation (and this occurs VERY rarely) and all you have to do is disconnect the phone lines and power from the back of the device you are using, wait a few minutes and plug back in and it should work. Other than that, NO problems!
digital phoneline with Lanier voice writer
I recently had my unlimited long distance suspended because of the time I was putting in on the lanier voice writer. I as going to switch to digital through the cable company with a data line added for access to dial tone. Does anyone have any suggestions good or bad on the digital phone line used with the LAnier voicewriter. Please let me know.

Thank, Lisa
Lanier station
not sure where to post this, but I have a complete Lanier 219 station that I am going to sell.  Any offers will be considered. 
Lanier Remote Station
Can anyone send me instructions on how to program an older Lanier remote transcription system? I think it is an LX-128? I just don't remember. I took my out of the closet to see if it works and have lost my instructions. Everything is all plugged in and works. HOwever, I get a double tone and not a dial tone. I remember having to program it but it has been sooooooo long ago. Any help would be appreciated.

Need Lanier ExWriter to test. Will VDI station or C-phone work or can I rerecord?

I am unfamiliar with the Lanier ExWriter. Can somebody please fill me in? I have a C-phone, VDI station, a call-in system with L.E.E.C.H. capabilities that can download work onto my system from another, or rerecord equipment. Can you access files from call-in systems like you can with a regular telephone and C-phone? How is the sound quality? I am not to thrilled with the .dss or WAV files.


Thanks!


I have used a Digital Transcribe Station from Transcription Gear in lieu of a C phone just fine nm

Does anyone know of any companies that still use these?  I am a die hard Lanier fan!  Thanks.
Lanier digital question
I have a job opportunity but the office uses Lanier digital. Would I have to buy any special equipment in order to play these files or are they just wavs or dss like any other digital system?

Thanks in advance.
lanier voice writer
HELP!  I'm going crazy.   All of a sudden my foot pedal went down on this unit - I have opened it and replugged a million times to no avail.   Any solutions or suggestions/   Thanks!
Lanier is a digital unit
There is a screen on the front of the unit letting you know the job information, number of minutes, dictator, etc.  The unit itself utilizes a phone line.  The dictators call the server and record their dictation.  You access their dictation through the Lanier. 
Lanier Voice Writer 1000
Client uses phone in Lanier Voice Writer 1000 with MTs coming into the office to transcribe.  What is necessary to hire at home transcriptionists with this system?  Are there tapes involved, will a c-phone work or can you not hire at home transcriptionists with this system?  Thank you for any help you may have.  
It wasn't on a voice file. It was on an old Lanier, but (sm)

my friend transferred it to a tape (she had the dictation) and I listened to it.  Gross.


Lanier & digital phone line
Does anyone use a Lanier with a digital phone line (not VOIP)? Anything else required to make this work?

thx.
Have a Lanier VW system which pulls voice files

can pull your voice directly from the hospital side so you can send via FTP directly to your MT's. The files are converted to play using Express Scribe or any player which can play typical .wav files.


If you deal with seperate dempgraphic files I can help also. Thanks


Digital phone line with Lanier voicewriter
Now I am getting digital phone through my cable company with the addition of a data line which is suppose to give me unlimited access for dial up so I am hoping that will work. Does anyone else use a Lanier with Time Warner Cable digital phone and if so any problems?
What digital voice recorder would you
nm
Digital Voice Recorder
www.transcriptiongear.com has a bunch of choices and they all come with the software to transfer the files.  The software can also be configured to return the documents too.
DVI stands for Digital Voice something, I

can't remember.  I use this system.  My company provided my foot pedal/software.  I think the company has to provide the software, as I've never seen a single user software available.   Foot pedal will be $60-$80 depending on where you get it, may be able to find on e-bay cheaper.  


Do a Google search for DVI compatible foot pedal.  I don't recommend TVPS.com.


Digital Voice voicewave player

Is anyone familar with the digital voice voicewave player?  Do you have any idea of the pricing for software and license?  I got a quote and was blown away.  Just wanted to check that it is correct. 


Dictation Digital Voice question
I need some assistance, please. Could someone tell me which transcription units are compatible with Dictaphone Digital Voice? Thanks!
question about .dss and digital voice editor 2

I have digital voice Editor 2 and I have no problems using wav files or mp3 files on it.  But I do not know how to get .dss files to work on it.  Does anyone else use digital voice editor 2 for freelance work and if so, how do you get .dss files to work?


Or maybe just a general question, what program can I get to be able to use .dss files. 


Thanks in advance


 


 


 


Digital Voice Editor & Vista

Me again!  This time I installed the disk (Sony DVE v.2.4.04) and got an error message on my new computer with Vista.  I need this to hear the sound on voice files for a client I work for....  I feel like a Pioneer with Vista and transcription!   Anyone else have this and found a solution?


Update:  I went ahead and bought Office 2007 as I need Word to transcribe and also use Excel to keep track of lines and my college son needs Powerpoint!  Thanks for the help! 


digital voice transcription info
I am looking for information on how to do something. I local doctor's office said that they use a handheld digital recorder and then the doctor downloads the file onto the computer and then emails it to the transcriptionist. HAs anybody done anything like this and what do I need to do this. What software, is there free software. Any information would be very helpful.

Thank you,

PT position requires Lanier dictaphone but I have VDI 3006 Digital SuperStation

Can I use a VDI 3006 Digital SuperStation when the job calls for Lanier dictaphone?  I read a post that said Super Station could be used in place of Lanier but not the other way around.


And, if not...Do you think I should purchase a Lanier Dictaphone in order to get a PT job which sounds promising?  It would be a fast return on my investment and I could use it in the future.


 


I have Start Stop digital voice player--sm
and Spyware Doctor, as well. I have never had any conflicts between the two, and I really do not see why one would interfere with the other. although, I do not leave Spyware Doctor on all the time. I leave it off while I am working, as it did tend to slow things down a bit, but I never had any problems with it. I do run a nightly scan with Spyware Doctor though. I would be careful of other Spyware programs. I have had others that claim to remove spyware from your computer but actually do absolutely nothing. I believe the one I am thinking of is Spyware Eliminator, but I am not sure right off the top of my head. Good luck.
My digital voice player converts files to be --sm
able to be played. it sounds like your voice player does not. Maybe either you or she needs to save the file as a wav file first, prior to playing. either that, or try downloading the express scribe player, which is free, and try to play it with that. If that plays, then it is your voice player which is not compatible with the files she is sending you. good luck.

Looking for Software to Organize Digital Voice Files

 


Anyone know of good software that can take my digital voice files and organize them so I can keep track of which worker is working on which doctor, keep an eye on turnaround time, etc. -- instead of making endless folders on the computer myself. Voice files are separate from the typed reports, which are done in Word. Thank you.

Any way to transfer microcasettes to digital voice files? (sm)

I'll be using a subcontractor and rather than picking up and delivering tapes, is there a way for me to transfer dictation from tapes to voice files that she can transcribe using express scribe?


Do they make such a machine?


Digital Voice Editor or Express Scribe - question

I have been using my Sony Digital Voice Editor for transcription, and it is over 2 years old and the foot pedal is just clunking out.  It seems that I cannot just reorder a new foot pedal, but I have to buy the whole kit at $149.00. 


So my question is this - what are the benefits of transcribing with Express Scribe, other than cost is probably just the foot pedal and free download? Am I able to divide up long files on Express Scribe and perhaps "share" them with other transcriptionists?  What are the downs to having Express Scribe?


 


 


 


I am looking for recommendations for a FTP site to retrieve digital voice files. sm
Can you tell me what site you use, how much it costs, etc.? Any info appreciated!
Converting voice files to digital files

I have a Voice Solutions dictation system that will happily convert DS4000 voice files to digital when they are downloaded (wave files). However, it will not recognize any other files for conversion. I had a physician download .WAM files from his DS-30 and my dictation system would not convert it. Anyone have any suggestions?  I would greatly appreciate any input.


Thanks!!!


Hi, Deeni! I did Lanier for several years and was always told that Lanier....sm
would only work with/accept/interface with other Lanier products, that everything was proprietary, but that was a few years ago and do not know if anything there has changed, wish I was of more help!  Have a good one!
I do tapes and digital. And I was told if I'm not logged into the digital system, they assume I&

BUT she wants me logged into the system by 9:30 a.m.  So I'm confused too.  I've decided that I may come back to her and just say I'm not going to do the tapes anymore.  I hate the tapes anyway.  The voice quality is horrible, it fades in and out.  It takes me twice as long to transcribe their tapes than the digital.


Should be voice to voice (talking), not transcribing. nm

ARGH.. Have you gone to the gas station lately
or to the grocery store. Do you have a clue what your utilities are going to be this coming winter and WORK FOR LESS. YOU ARE BONKERS
It's slow everywhere right now. But, we have to man the station.

Went to the Prometric Testing Station

I took my CMT exam yesterday. It took almost 4 hours and was one of the hardest tests I've ever taken. The test gets all done and it just says that you've "passed" and will be getting your certificate and pin "in the mail." Couldn't they  have the screen show a display of fireworks or flash "CMT, CMT...." at you.


And I really want to know what I scored. I know they can't give me the answers to particular questions because other people will be taking the test, but at least give me a number so I know if I'm really good or just okay. I'm obsessive that way I guess. I've been looking up everything I was unsure of, and I've only found one question I missed for sure, but I know there are stupid mistakes. And I know I'll be waking up at night in a cold sweat remembering something else I need to look up. Okay, I've finally gone nuts. 


I've never seen a company ad that allows a Mac station. nm

Philips Transcription Station and Vonage
Years ago, I used a Philips Digital Transcription Station to get my MT work.  It would plug into my landline jack and then I could dial in to get the jobs to transcribe.   This week, the machine has returned since I am trying to help out someone with their work.  Unfortunately, I no longer have a landline.  I switched to Vonage over the summer.  When I try to connect, it dials the phone number, I hear the computer voice that tells me to enter my ID # and then when I do that it is supposed to validate my number and show me the available jobs.  It starts the validating process but then times out and hangs me up.  Has anyone had problems like this and if so have you been able to fix it.....help please!!!
Check your local police station, that'd be the place to look.
I bet they don't outsource that.....or do they? Interesting.
Outrageous. I just forwarded to a local radio station in my area. Who else can we send this to?

Local radio station is giving away American Idol concer tickets. sm
They're running a contest for 2 free tickets. With the entry, you have to list what you would be willing to do in exchange for these tickets. The best/most original idea will win the tickets. Any suggestions? It has to be something the person would really be willing to do. I really want these tickets!!
