What is an IC recorder?

This IC recorder enables you to record and play back oral messages in the

built-in IC memory.

zRecording

When a new message is recorded, it is automatically added after the last

recorded messages.

Unlike with tape recorders, you do not need to worry about recording over

previously recorded messages by mistake.

Since you do not need to search for the end of the last recording, you can

start recording quickly whenever you wish.

zPlayback

With this IC recorder, you can quickly locate the message you want to play

back.

Reviewing the current recording is also very easy.

zErasing

You can quickly erase unwanted messages with an easy operation. When a

message is erased, the next message automatically advances, leaving no

blank space.
