This is the newest entry to the hand-held USB microphone
market and huge leap in technology by Philips. Made for the demanding workflows
and requirement of the professional, this product combines the best of design,
ergonomics, and functionality. Unique to this microphone is a suspended
electret condenser microphone element which is "decoupled" from the
housing to offer both unprecedented accuracy, but also immunity from background
noise, touch, and click noises. The
LFH3700 includes a touch sensitive mechanism for navigation.
Specific unique features of the LFH 3700 include the
following:
- Decoupled studio-quality microphone for precise
recording: The free-floating microphone
is decoupled from the device's housing, which guarantees that almost no
background, touch, click, air or structure-borne noise is recorded. This
technique is derived from studio microphones to make sure there are no sound
distortions whatsoever and to guarantee outstanding speech recognition results.
- Microphone grille with optimized structure for
crystal clear sound: The metal grille
comes with specially designed hexagonal openings which allow three times more
sound to reach the microphone than its predecessor, engineered to provide
crystal clear recordings.
- Integrated pop filter for perfect recording
quality: Fleece inserted above and below
the microphone capsule filters out sound distortions such as pop and hiss
noise, guaranteeing perfect results even if dictating closely into the
microphone.
- Large speaker area for premium playback: The SpeechMike Premium Touch is equipped with
an extra-large speaker, enabling it to not only record but also play back
recordings in clear and crisp quality.
- Ergonomically shaped for perfect fit in the hand: The device is designed to fit perfectly into
the hand and reduce unintentional pressing of buttons. The trigger and the
'command' button on the back of the device are engineered to be in easy reach
for the fingers.
- Wear-free slide switch or push buttons for
comfortable operation: The SpeechMike
Premium Touch comes with a slide-switch or a push-button operation. The slide
switch is wear-free and ergonomically shaped with a softly ribbed surface for
smooth tactile feedback and comfortable and intuitive utilization. In addition,
our engineers implemented a millionfold proven contactless slider detection,
making it completely wear-free for an extra-long lifetime.
- Integrated motion sensor mutes microphone when
not in use: Being on the cutting edge of
technology, the SpeechMike Premium Touch comes with an integrated motion
sensor, making it the first stationary dictation device that can be controlled
by the movement of your hand. It detects when it's put on the table, mutes the
microphone, and once it is being picked up again it unmutes the microphone. In
addition to that, custom events can be programmed, e.g., to pause and to
continue the recording.
- Touch sensor for integrated mouse function: The device comes with a touch sensor. This
allows the user to easily control and navigate within applications while
recording, without having to switch between the mouse and microphone.
- Antimicrobial housing and buttons for hygienic
working: The housing and the buttons of
the SpeechMike Premium Touch are made of antimicrobial synthetics that work
against a wide range of different microorganisms such as bacteria (e.g.
pneumococcal bacilli and multiresistant microorganisms such as MRSA), viruses
(e.g. HIV, influenza, etc.), fungi (e.g. Aspergillus niger), or algae. The
polished, high quality pearl metal surface also makes the device non-sensitive
to touch noises and fingerprints.
- Freely configurable function keys for a
personalized workflow: The SpeechMike
Premium Touch has freely configurable keys which are especially useful for
programming speech recognition commands. The device can be personalized for any
user and application.
- Smart, backwards compatible firmware for extra
flexibility: Customers can upgrade from
their previous SpeechMike model without installing additional software. For
integrators, this means no changes need to be implemented and the existing SDK
can be used. The SpeechMike Premium Touch is compatible with Mac and Windows
operating systems, as well as virtual environments such as Citrix, VM Ware and
Hyper-V. It can be configured using SpeechControl, the convenient Philips
hardware management tool.

Comments: For the user preferring to hold rather than wear a microphone, this is an excellent product and in our opinion is the most accurate hand-held microphone on the market. It is our most higly recommended hand-held microphone and our personal favorite in medical dictation. If we have any complaint about this product it is the need to use and understand a separate software package (SpeechControl Application) in order to integrate the buttons with Dragon. If you can afford it, we strongly recommend purchasing Octopus USB controller and using this to program the buttons on your SpeechMike Premium ... it will greatly simplify the process! Unique to this product is the application control software for use with a Mac computer and the "suspended" microphone element that reduces its susceptibility to external noise.
