• Choice of stenomask- SR-Pro-1 or SR-Pro-2 – The SR Pro series (SR stands for speech recognition) are engineered with proprietary micro sound-booth technology that ensures optimal speech recognition accuracy for Dragon dictation.
• Dragon approved external USB sound card. Your sound card is something you should seriously consider when buying a stenomask for use with Dragon. We pair our masks with a sound card that’s specifically designed to be used in conjunction with speech recognition software. Why do you want an external USB sound card instead of one built directly into your mask?  There are two very good reasons, money and reliability! Built in USB sound cards notoriously fail and when they do you have to replace your entire mask, costing you upwards of $400.00, don’t throw money away on a throw away mask!. Unlike other masks ours won’t fail when you need them most.
• Two interchangeable face pieces – quiet cushion and over the nose- full face.  No matter what your face type or dictation style we’ve got you covered!
• Removable and adjustable hands free strap, keep both hands free while you work.
• Carry case – can hold two stenomasks and all your accessories.
• Extra foam insert replacement and tuning tool.
• Best warranty and knowledgeable, no nonsense customer service.

The SR Dragon has the highest speech recognition accuracy rate of any Stenomask on the market. What’s the secret? We’ve been engineering and manufacturing stenomask for over 75 years, in fact we invented the Stenomask. Steno SR (the SR stands for speech recognition) our 6th generation version is designed to work seamlessly with the latest digital technology, harnessing the boundless knowledge and experience that has been accumulated and refined over that time.

“Dear Talk Tech Thank you for the Steno SR Pro. I spent quite a bit of time testing the mask and I’m thrilled to report it is even better than the previous SmartMic design. Your claims are correct on all fronts. It’s considerably lighter and quieter. The speech recognition accuracy is amazing and I love the new sleeker, streamlined design. Court reporters will be very pleased! In my opinion there was no need to come up with a new mask design, yet you guys did and made it remarkably better. Congratulations, very high tech!” Bettye A. Keyes, author of “Voice Writing Method” CCR, CSR, CVR-M, RVR

“We bought one of these a few months ago to help us with note-taking in our clinic. It’s important that we keep the environment quiet but still needed a way to dictate our chart notes while maintaining patient confidentiality, and this has been exactly what we needed. It’s super comfortable, and we can use it anywhere in the clinic without fear of disturbing our patients or other staff. The product itself is well built, and I’d expect it to last for as long as we need it. Recommended for any environment where you need to communicate quietly and not be overheard” J.P Thuot Stillpoint Medical Clinic

Product Details

The hands free stand allows users to experience the benefits of our technology without having to hold up their device.  The heavy-duty mount is made of aluminum and is ideal for an office or work space where easy access to your Stenomask is needed while your hands remain free to type and perform other tasks. Install the C-clamp base on a desk, cart, worktable, bench, lectern, or other table-like surfaces. This mount also installs easily onto a wheelchair. The 22” arm adjusts to provide optimum positioning. The C-clamp maintains a firm grip and opens as wide as 1.75 inches. Bend the 22” adjustable arm and rotate the swivel ball adapter head 360° for exact positioning of your mask & hours of comfortable, private transcription and communication.

Thanks so much for the opportunity for us at Hansard to try the hands-free stand. I’ll give you a brief summary of the editors’ experience. We had three editors try it out, all of whom had previously used the steno mask with the strap. They each had a very positive experience with the stand and definitely preferred it.

First, it was just easier and physically more comfortable to use. They were able to get it positioned in a way that allowed them to be in good upright posture, and they found it very stable. Second, users felt more in control of the amount of pressure on their mouths and surrounding muscles, which produced more relaxed speech and — voila! — more accurate transcription. One editor reported that it was the first time Dragon didn’t make any mishearing errors. Third, on a practical human level, users appreciated the ability to pivot away and take a drink in order to keep their throats lubricated. They were also able to cough freely. J  It’s allergy season, after all, and being able to pull away briefly to breathe (accommodating sinus issues) also prevented moisture buildup in the mask, which had been a concern for at least one person.

Overall, the users who tried it loved it. One comment sums it up: “Having worked with the arm, I would choose that every time if I could.” Interestingly, editors who previously had written off even trying the steno mask because of the strap-on issues have now expressed interest in giving it a go. Here in our quiet environment, the more people using masks over mics the better.

Again, many thanks for the chance to give the hands-free stand a try. It was a hit!
