The Philips 635 Voice Tracer Digital Recorder can record at 8, 32, 48 and 64 kbps bit-rates in the MP3 format. It has a built-in 2GB memory, high-speed USB 2.0 interface for data transfer and four internal folders that can support 99 files each. Although MP3 is the only recording format available on the Voice Tracer, you still have the option to choose from four different bit-rates depending on the quality required for each particular recording session. Designed for making voice recordings on-the-go, the lightweight and ergonomic Voice Tracer features an integrated mono microphone and powerful, dynamic front speaker that facilitates immediate, crystal-clear playback of a recent voice recording. To enhance the quieter voices that are more difficult to hear, Philips provides ClearVoice sound enhancement. As an added convenience, there's a headphone output for privacy and a microphone input for recording via external mic. Aimed at increasing your flexibility, this model includes a hands-free headset for making higher-quality recordings in the field.
With flexibility as important as portability, the Voice Tracer is equipped with several time-saving and convenient features. It's possible to initiate recordings by voice-activation. After engaging this hands-free method, the device will automatically begin recording as soon as it detects a voice. When the voice stops, the recording stops. If the voice begins again, the recording will begin again until the feature is switched off. When the entire device is shut down, a recording can still be quickly started with the one-touch option. Simply hold the REC button down for a moment and the unit will turn on and instantly start recording.
There's also an integrated LCD display with 1.4" diagonal screen to improve menu navigation speed. Located just above the LCD display is the voice volume indicator for ensuring clear volume feedback and when you're away from the Voice Tracer, there's a keypad lock to protect your files. Even with the 110mW speaker output, high-quality recording options and array of useful features afforded by the 635 Voice Tracer, it still only requires a single AAA battery for up to 22 hours of recording.
