No matter who sells them Infinity makes

In Reply to: Foot pedals - Siren
about 99% of the foot pedals, at least the kind you hook to your computer. The foot pedal is different, thicker, wired differently, and there will be an adjustment period. You might try loosening the screws up just a tiny, tiny bit and see if that makes a difference. I have no problem with play but the FF and rewind pedals can be stiff, but I rarely use either one.
There have been some suggestions about putting a folded up towel up against the pack of your pedal so it is thicker than the pedal and that you push down onto the pedal, but your heel is padded from the towel. I've never tried it so can't say how it works, but I just have the tips of the toes my pedal and it works fine.

Infinity makes probably 95% of the foot pedals
used, even if sold under a different name. I don't know if there is one made to be compatible with what you have, but you could Google foot pedals for your particular model.
Infinity makes the majority of the foot pedals, though
some are configured to work only with proprietary programs, so even though it is Infinity brand doesn't mean it will work with your player program. I have an Infinity pedal that only works with one player program.
Infinity makes the majority of the foot pedals, though
they may be sold through many different companies and under different names. The pedal you get depends on the software you will be using it with. The USB works with most programs; however, there are programs that have proprietary software and the foot pedal has to be specifically configured for it. The pedal looks the same, it is just the wiring that is different.
If you don't yet have a job that requires a pedal I would wait. You can test w/o a foot pedal using hot keys. Some companies will even provide a foot pedal.
Yea, if its not "industry standard" experience, it makes no matter.

Doesn't matter, IF you are not paid an hourly wage, i.e. a set amount no matter - sm
how much or how little you type, say $12.00/hour, you do not get OT. As someone mentioned here, certain jobs are exempt, and as most of us are paid a flat rate of .08 cpl or .09 or .10, whatever it is, that is all we get regardless of how many hours under or over 40 hours we go. If you want OT then go get an in-house job or get a job doing something else.
What sells well on Ebay??..sm
I definitely want to do it at least for extra money. Tried to sell a Barbie doll, but didn't sell. Going to try some other stuff, but wondering what sells well. Clothes? Kitchen items?
AAMT sells their information.
If you've practically been in contact with AAMT at all, they've got your info and they sell their information to many companies.
Anyone know who sells wrist braces...
for relief? I have a few but have gained weight, so need one for a "fattier" arm.
TIA!
Who sells comps without Vista?
 I'm looking into getting a laptop but everywhere I've gone they all have Vista. I didn't want to go with a used or refirbed one either, but it's looking like that may be my option right now. It isn't something I really want to wait on either to see when/if all the programs I use become compatible.
So, is there someplace that give you the option?
dictationwarehouse.com sells that --I have one works great - nm

P.S. - Sharper Image also sells this same headphone for much more.sm
I should also mention that I recommended this headset to my team when I was supervising because the company-issued headsets were basically garbage. I had a lot of good reactions, but a few people didn't like "over-the-head" style because it smooshed their hair or it just wasn't the best one for them. Hearing is a very individual thing and what works for one might not work for another, but quite a few of my crew got these and most seemed to like them.
These Kensingtons fold for travel (a lot of people use them on airplanes), by the way, and you can use them with any other portable audio like a Walkman or iPod, so I think all my folks kept theirs even if they decided to use them for other things than transcribing due to the fact that it's so inexpensive.
in-laws raise cattle and sells them-6 available for this fall
a nutritionist also told me that grass-fed cows are rich in omega-3 fatty acids (unlike grain-fed cows). I have tried to offer them to a few friends but none seemed interested.
In-laws used to raise cows purely for family consumption (4 families in all, sharing one cow per year). But interested friends asked last year if my in-laws would be interested in selling. The idea brewed so now we have 6 to go. No buyers yet, though. Grass-fed and roaming freely, with names and treated like pets, cleaned and taken care of like their very own children, we have peace of mind consuming meat of cattle we raised rather than buy from grocery stores. Same thing with veggies. Sad thing we only have 5 months to plant and harvest. I do can what I can (pasta sauces, tomato salsa, pickles, etc.) and store onions and potatoes. My mother-in-law raises chickens also, for year-round egg supply. We buy our milk from a local farm (pasteurized unhomogenized). My sis-in-law gets milk from her own cows, raises pigs and chickens as well. I hope to be able to raise pigs and chickens next year, too. To me, these are the truly good food, not those in the restaurants/grocery stores.
Infinity
I use an Infinity USB. Mine doesn't seem that way, but I've used it a long long time. Maybe it's just because your pedal is new? I can vaguely remember when I started using the one I use now thinking the same thing you're saying, however.
i just use an infinity one.

Infinity wav pedal
The Infinity wav pedal comes in three configurations, IN-USB-1, IN-BMG (15 pin) & IN-DB9 (9pin).
What wav player program are you using, Express Scribe?
Have you upgraded your operating system?

I have Infinity pedals
I have two Infinity foot pedals and just ordered a new one recently for my laptop, a USB from Jay Vance (who posts on another MT Forum). It was $79 including shipping and I had it in about three business days. I was very pleased with the price and his service. You may contact him at: info@vancedigital.com
I have an old Infinity that still works but needs to be sprayed with silicone I think as it squeaks after many years of use but it still works. :)
Mine is an Infinity
and has worked with everything I have tried it with
I like my Infinity pedals. nm

Infinity pedal
I use the same pedal I used with DQS with MQ. It's Infinity. If you want the specifics, I can look them up. In Emdat you will have to do a pedal wizard thing to get it going. I thought it wasn't "taking" because it was so simply. I was doing and then undoing what I'd did. When it says to press the pedal. You simply step on an off of it and not keeping holding it down, which is what I also did and others have done I believe. In other words, complicating an easy task which I do!
The pedal is Infinity IN-USB-1.
The headphone, and I have tried several, plugs into the little audio hole on the computer. The OS is XP. I hope that covers it.
Thanks
I use an Infinity USB with version 8 - nm

99% of the pedals are made my Infinity
and look alike, though the wiring configuration can be very different. I currently had 3 pedals and 2 will work with ExpressScribe, but they won't work with other software programs as they are wired to work with proprietary software.
My foot pedal says Infinity on it. (sm)
A lot of people refer to a wave foot player as any basically any pedal, but there is an actual brand that is a WAVpedal. You can use Google and find a lot of answers that way.
Infinity or what kind of pedal??
How do you know what kind of pedal you have? I see no markings on mine to identify it. I see you all talking all the time about them, but don't know what I have except that it hooks into a USB port. ?? Can you tell me how to identify? Thanks.
Can anyone help with Infinity foot pedal??
Help! Just bought a used infinity foot pedal, works fine with Express Scribe but can't figure out how to get it to work with DSS. I don't have a serial port that it will fit into in my computer, but have it plugged in with an adapter/USB plug. I have Olympus DSS player 2002 software installed on my computer and tried to play an old file and it would not work. I need to be able to play wav files. Help!
Infinity USB pedal is a common one. See that and others

Infinity Foot Pedal
I have a brand new Infinity foot pedal I have never used if you are needing one. Please write me back. Thanks Mary
Thanks. I was looking at the Infinity USB VE-INUSB model
Just trying to convince myself that was what I should get. It's nice to know I'm not the only one around on a Saturday night! Thanks again.
Infinity Foot Pedal
Can someone please help!! I can't seem to program my foot pedal for back space or fast forward. I can use the "F" keys but would like to use the pedal only. No matter where I press all I get is current dictation. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
editscript/infinity footpedal
Has anyone been successful in using the Infinity USB footpedal with editscript? If so, could you outline the steps to do it?
Thanks a ton!
have never been able to get my Infinity pedal to work...
with Express Scribe. It's a pain, but I've just used the manual controls.
Should have added below that my Infinity USB pedal works with it as well.
will Infinity pedal work with Inscribe?
I'm switching companies and foot pedals and don't understand. I'll be using Emdat-Inscribe, and the pedal I have is an Infinity USB1. Are these compatible? I've done what it says to do on the site for other pedals and it still won't work. Does anyone know if this Inifinity foot pedal will work with Inscribe?
I use an Infinity and it works fine with ExpressScribe. (nm)

Thanks! I've been told Infinity works with (sm)
the new platform I will be working on, I just needed to make sure it would work with my Start-Stop. I really did not want to have to get a new media player as well. Thanks again!
Does your Infinity pedal work with DocQscribe?
Just wondering if your Infinity foot pedal works in DocQscribe? Does it automatically recognise it?
My friend has a footpedal that a former employee of Medquist was using, and went to use it as a new employee with MedQuist and it won't work now. It works in Express Scribe perfectly. MedQuist says you have to rent one from them and they won't "troubleshoot" problems with the pedal since it wasn't purchased through them......(even though it was by this former employee).
Any suggestions?
An Infinity 3-button pedal will do just about everything. Your headset

I have the Infinity, have found it compatible with just about everything, it is great!.....NM

Food pedal, hee hee. Mine's an Infinity...
I've used a Dictaphone foot pedal, too, but it came with the Dictaphone. Try searching on E-bay for foot pedals or Infinity foot pedals.
A regular Infinity USB pedal should work with their system. Why not ask them for sure? nm

Get an Infinity USB pedal from transcriptiongear.com or the Transcription warehouse. I think

Infinity USB pedal and Express Scribe software. sm
You may need to install an additional file to play .dss files.
This setup works for me.
I think your Infinity foot pedal has iNet software
set up so it will not play with Express Scribe (I had the same problem). I ended up buying a new Infinity foot pedal off ebay for $65 including shipping and it works fine on Express Scribe and WinScribe. Good luck!
Bought Infinity foot pedal 9 pin and works with Expresscribe.
Specifically what foot pedal did you buy and why can't Expresscribe help you if you bought it from them?
I had found an earlier post that said Infinity would work with InScribe, but sm
I don't think the poster knew about the most recent upgrade.
I had also read about the start/stop pedal being frustrating due to it not stopping immediately. I did find one at Dictran that said exclusively for InScribe, but there are two types there, so that was also confusing!
