I use a Lanier transcriber but the MDs I think

I have Lanier transcriber-nothing like C-phone
I have a Lanier transcriber that I pop small tapes in to transcribe.  But Lanier is a huge company that has branched out into other areas.......but the transcriber is NOTHING like a C-phone.
I use a Lanier transcriber - they cost TONS

eBay comes to mind - and what the other poster said about contacting Lanier for a used one.  As I know it, a new one is about $600 (?), Lanier being the BEST transcriber around, JMHO


.......with ebay though you have to be very careful. 


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!
where did you buy your transcriber....

Where? How much? What to look for?


Any help is great!


Transcriber--which is best?

Hello--I am getting ready to graduate from MT school and am researching transcription equipment.  Can anybody give me some advice about which brands are the best?  I don't need a top of the line machine, but I definitely want something that works well and that I won't have to replace in a couple of months.  Also, while I'm researching all transcribers, I'm also very interested in digital transcribers.  Thank you!


DA-128 transcriber
Does anyone know what button gets the demographics to play.  I haved tried them all and am ready to give it a heave.  No info on the net anywhere other than the price of the thing.  Any help is GREATLY appreciated.  Suppose to be starting a new job and can't get the demographics to play.  Thanks in advance.
OM's transcriber
headset is all I ever use. The brand is Panasonic RP-EP110 microcassette transcriber headset. Just go to Officemax.com and you can find them under "transcribers".
Do you have a tape transcriber, or does it have to be
voice files?  I have some practice dictation minicassette tapes here that I'd be willing to send you.  As for the voice files, you could try Google searching.  I typed in "medical transcription" practice sound files download   but don't really have time to search through the results.  I don't even know if there's anything out there.
transcriber sticking
My Pearlcorder T1000 is skipping every 2 seconds, both in play and rewind. tried cleaning inside with alcohol. any other ideas? TU
Ever heard of this transcriber?
Has anyone ever used/heard of a Digital Voice Model DVI-115 work station C-phone? It was just shipped to me for a new acct I am starting and I have looked and looked on the web and can't find a manual. Can't really even seem to find this machine anywhere. Thanks
software and transcriber
1. Has anyone used the Instant Text V Pro software?
2. I want to purchase a digital transcriber. Does anyone have a favorite to recommend?
Cheaper to buy transcriber?
If he is doing tapes it might be cheaper to go on E-Bay and buy a transcriber than everything that is needed to transfer over to digitial files as well as the time it will take.   If he does micro tapes you can pick up an Olympus Pearlcorder for under $75 on E-Bay and I have always had good luck.  
Need transcriber unit
You need a transcribing unit that has a pedal that comes with it.  Your digital pedal will not work.  Depends on size of tape -- micro, mini or standard. 
All N One Wave Transcriber
Thanks for the advice. After using the 30-day free trial I found on a web site I've decided to stick with Digital Voice Editor (FS85USB). I don't like the pedal nearly as much but I guess I can live with it because the software is excellent. The All N One is okay, the other is just better. Thanks though. I appreciate it.
My current transcriber I bought from
this site. It appeared brand new, and I paid about half of what a new one costs at an office supply store. I'm sure they are available on e-bay as well. Mine is a Panasonic minicassette, which is my brand of choice (more control over the dictation than some of the others I've tried), although I've seen it posted more than once on this site that Lanier is the best, but way more expensive.
Transcriber is a piece of equipment.

What is the best micro-cassette transcriber? SM
Believe it or not, some docs still use tapes.  I have a Sony transcriber but the tape fades in and out.  If I let off the foot pedal and then play again, the tape will get louder and clear and then gradually fade again.  It's really annoying and I'm thinking it's the transcriber.  Is there a machine out there that will play a tape with more clarity and consistency?
I have a Panasonic transcriber, if you need one. Send
me an email if you are interested in purchasing it.  Includes foot pedal.
Any opinions on All N One Wave Transcriber?
I am looking for a new transcriber software kit.  The All N One Wave Transcriber by Martel Electronics looks good but they don't have a free trial download.  I don't want to buy without knowing anything about it.  I need something that I can see all the files that have been downloaded to me and that I can listen to and name file by file.  I have a doctor that many times does not complete the dictation in one sitting - may continue it days later.  I need to be able to search through files to see if I have the continuations or not.  Most, from what I have found, don't have this option.  I have Sony's Digital Voice Editor and love it but really dislike the pedal so am trying to find something similar in another software. Does anyone out there have experience with this software and pedal (All N One)?  Thanks in advance for any advice.
FYI, did you know that a transcriber is a machine and a transcriptionist is a person?

Need a C-phone for work. Can I use a digital transcriber sm

I have 2 digital work stations.  One is Bytescribe call-in system.  The other is Philips station.  Neither have the actual phone part that you pick up.  I can call in to different numbers to get work.  Does anyone know if this will work?  I need a "C-phone" to get work for a new job, and I don't know if I should buy one or what.  I posted before, but no one answered.  Just thought I'd try and ask again.  Thanks.


AC adapter for D-Light digital transcriber?
I have an old D-Light machine that I need to put back into use. Have misplaced the AC adapter. Does anyone know what type of AC adapter it uses?

Thanks!
Sony M2000 transcriber question
Just bought a Sony M2000 microcassette transcriber from Goodwill for $6.99 with all accessories.  (buy of the year!!)  Can someone tell me how to erase tapes?  I currently use a Panasonic, so I'm not quite sure how it works.  I'm sure the answer is right in front of my eyes.  Thanks alot!!
Lanier
Yes Transcend uses the voice writer on certain accounts.  Just started using it. 
Lanier VXP??
Anybody use Lanier VPX? I can't get my wav pedal to play these files. Any suggestions?
Lanier VXP
These can only be played with a Lanier footpedal.  They have a proprietorial header on the voice file and cannot be opened without the appropriate footpedal.
I have a lanier - sm
I would like to know more too.  Thanks.
lanier
Does anyone use a lanier voice writer and looking for extra work?   Thanks!
lanier
I know this may be redundant, but try unplugging everything and then start over. I have had this happen and it corrected it. Good luck!

My Lanier LX-230 will NOT turn on when I push on/off button .  I tried *99 1 to see which buttons are programmed, and the on/off button did not light up .  Does anyone know what (if there is one) the code is for on/off button for the LX-230.  To check, pls. try *99 then 1 while your LX-230 is off, then push the on/off button once - the code should be displyed...PLEASE reply to me with the code.


WOULD APPRECIATE YOUR HELP!!!


Lanier

Lanier
If you use a calling card to dial into the hospital system using a Lanier, do your phone card minutes start to decrease immediately or only when you have the foot pedal down and are listening to the dictation? I hope this question makes sense? Tx
lanier
On mine assign job is on the right side 5th one down - good luck!
IC Lanier
Check out MDI-MD.
Could someone tell me what a Lanier is.
I know I heard of it but not sure exactly what it is.
Lanier
It is a device that hooks into a phone line and you hook in your headphones and receive the dictation through there. Expensive peice of equipment. You have to dial into where ever your dictation is coming from. Does that help you at all?
I currently use it.
Lanier
Looking for an affordable digital system that would allow at least 4 people to dictate at the same time. Since they dial into the server with Lanier, is it possible for more than one person to be dictating at the same time? Would you need more than one phone line to allow for this? (Not sure if this system would allow for that or not). Any suggestions?
Thanks.
lanier
if you know job #, use the assign by job # key and reassign it to yourself. if you don't have that key, holler and I'll give you programming directions.
lanier
Try unplugging the phone lines from the modem (flat box) for about 10 minutes and then plug back in.
I need some help. I have a Lanier LX-219-1 with VTI. sm
I need a terminal block, power source and pedal.  Can anyone tell me where I can get these.  I have checked Executive Communications and they have them new.  I would like to buy used if at all possible.  Thanks!
Lanier P-145

Hello,


Does anyone know how to use the Lanier P-145(An old telephone 4 tape recording system)?  Or does anyone know of a manual I can get my hands on?  I just purchased a used one and I have tried everything and I can not get it to work!!!  It does power on, but I am not sure if I am hooking everything up correctly. 


Thank you very much.


Kimberly


Lanier
Agree. Lanier the best, but expensive. $600-700 for mine 12 years ago. Lasts forever, and you can spend the same $600-700 on cheaper models that will need to be replaced with new on a regular basis. Have tried Olympus, Panasonic, Sony - all lasted less than a year.
Lanier 219

Any one here know ths machine like the back of their hand?  I have a few questions about functions of some of the keys.


 


Lanier
Sometimes they get sensitive and can do that, or also not give a full visual read-out in the window. When that happens, the tech tells us to fully power it down, totally unplug from its power source (from the wall, etc.) and let it sit for a full 5 minutes. This cools the unit down and since they are preprogramed which also includes programming of your footpedal, this allows the preprogramming to come back to its original state. Mine does stuff like that about every month or so. Most of them are pretty old. Also, you may have to get technical support if powering down does not work, to check your pedal settings. Hope this helps. I know these "old dinosaurs" get fussy sometimes.
Lanier

I am trying to find out what are the advantages/disadvantages of Lanier versus other platforms? 


Harder/easier?


Outdated/up-to-date?


Lanier is the best
Any transcription product with Lanier on the name is #1 in my book.
Lanier
Lanier is one of the oldest, slowest, clunkiest systems around. I actually quit a job that was paying me 11 cpl on Lanier and took one for 9-3/4 on WAV and am making waaaay more on the WAV account. Lanier stinks.
Lanier help

I need the command prompts to use to access a Lanier system with non-Lanier equipment. 


I access 2 other Lanier systems with the same equipment with NO problem at all.  But this one is recognizing me as a "dictator" and not a "transcriber".


The prompts I do have, don't work.  They are "call in, wait for beep, enter #6"  I should hear "welcome" then enter my ID and should be good to go. 


I've spent almost 3 hours searching for the solution on the internet and I need help fast.  There are a ton of jobs waiting for me on this new system - so I'm losing $$$


thanks in advance for any help or suggestions,
