Recommended Microphones for nVoq Dictation
nVoq regularly reviews dictation microphones for compatibility and tests many of them for functionality with each release. Below is a list of microphones that should work well with nVoq products.
Some of the microphones listed below have been tested by nVoq Quality Assurance and are supported by nVoq Support, but others are not. While any noise-cancelling USB connected headset should work with either nVoq.Voice, all noise-cancelling USB microphones are not officially tested or supported. If a microphone is NOT listed as being "officially supported and tested," nVoq Support will not be able to help you with any issues you may have with the device.
Before purchasing any microphone or device in quantity, be sure to confirm the functionality and suitability of that device in your specific environment. microphone microphones microphone microphones microphone microphones microphone microphones
