Question: If the DS-2200 is a professional dictation device, why is it unable to edit files in the recorder?
The DS-2200 is a professional dictation device intentionally designed not to have the ability to edit files in the recorder. It was created to fill a niche in the law-enforcement market. Not having the ability to edit files enhances the admissibility of recordings made with the DS-2200 as evidence in legal proceedings.
