Welcome to PRIVO – A revolutionary wireless microphone system unlike any other, engineered for using speech enabled technology in less-than-ideal conditions.

Privo [ pree-voh ] is a wireless handset that eliminates background noise and makes the sound of your voice inaudible to those around you while simultaneously providing a crystal-clear voice signal – allowing you to talk, listen and document privately without interference. Built from premium materials that are durable and stay comfortable all day. Privo is a pocket-sized sound-booth providing complete privacy and noise cancellation at home, in the office or out in public.

Privo comes standard with Bluetooth 5.0 connectivity and is compatible with IOS and Android smartphones, tablets, computers or any wireless microphone enabled device. It can be used in conjunction with any voice application or speech recognition software such as Dragon. Use it to make private phone calls, verbally compose emails, text messages and documents, interact with smart devices such as Alexa- all without being overheard! The rechargeable lithium-ion battery provides up to 12 hours of continuous talk time and if it happens to run low Privo can be used while charging. Plug noise cancelling headphones into the audio jack to create your own personal soundproof bubble.

We obsessed over every detail so you can seamlessly connect to your device and talk privately all day. Our quiet cushion foam face piece physically blocks noise and provides pillowy soft comfort. The ergonomic design allows you to hold Privo comfortably in either hand or, if you prefer use one of our hands free options. An internal breathing port allows you to speak and breath naturally without skipping a beat.

Includes enhanced sound proofing, quiet cushion face piece, adjustable microphone volume, microphone tuning tool & extra foam insert. The industry’s best noise-canceling microphone with advanced SmartMic technology delivers uncompromising privacy and sound quality. Select your Backup Plug Type and Warranty below!]]> Dual microphone model – Steno SR Pro-2 is the industry’s best voice isolation, noise cancelling, speech recognition microphone. This model is for professionals such as court reporters and sound studio engineers that require an additional backup microphone (in case of malfunction or to produce two recordings or transcripts at the same time). Pro-2 has two stereo plugs which can be used in conjunction with two separate devices simultaneously i.e; a digital recorder and laptop. Engineered with proprietary micro sound-booth technology that ensures uncompromising sound quality and noise cancellation.  Where other microphones fail to deliver the Pro-2 steps up to the plate with:

    • Adjustable voice tuning – permitting each individual to customize their mask for peak performance
    • An internal breathing port allowing you to speak and breath naturally.
    • Tried and tested industry sound proofing and noise cancellation properties – 100% noise cancellation = zero background noise interference
    • Patented ultra sensitive SmartMic microphone engineered for all ranges of voice tone. Complete accuracy even when you whisper
    • Streamlined, lightweight and ergonomic design to relieve head, neck and hand stress
    • Multiple hands-free options
    • Best warranty and knowledgeable, no nonsense customer service

    The SR Pro series has the highest Dragon 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.

    • Smartphone adapter is required for use with tablets and smartphones
    • Andrea USB adapter is highly recommended for use with computers and speech recognition software such as Dragon Naturally Speaking. Something you should consider, 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?  For good reason! Built in sound cards notoriously fail and when they do you have to replace your entire mask, costing you upwards of $300.00 or more. Unlike other masks ours won’t fail when you need them most.

    “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

Acoustically matched for superior quality with all speech applications it eliminates the problems that are inherent in most standard, off-the shelf computers.]]> USB Audio Adapter for use with the SmartMic or any microphone connects the microphone through a computer’s USB port. Acoustically matched for superior quality with all speech applications it eliminates the problems that are inherent in most standard, off-the shelf computers.

    Often placed in close proximity to components such as the power supply and processors, internal sound cards or integrated audio systems can generate audible noise. Combine this with the fact that computers are frequently used in high noise level environments, and the performance of the microphone may be affected.

    The USB101 uses high quality digital circuitry to bypass the computer’s internal microphone input, converting the analog signal to digital. The result is increased clarity and performance of the stereo microphone for all digital audio applications including VoIP and speech recognition programs.

    Product Features:
    •   Premium external USB microphone adapter with stereo microphone input
    •   Bypasses a computer’s internal microphone input, creating superior low-noise audio
    •   Small form factor – compact and portable
    •   Compatible with all microphones

    COMPATIBILITY
    •   Windows XP, Windows Vista, Windows 7, Windows 8, Windows 8.1, & Windows 10
    •   Apple: Mac OS X 10.5 and up
