PULSE™SMARTPEN RECORDING
The built-in microphone on the Pulse smartpen is optimized for smaller recording
environments, like a small classroom or a conference room.
The included 3-D Recording Headset features a microphone in each earbud that records
in stereo and captures far-field audio, such as a teacher in front of a large classroom or a
speaker on a stage.
