Buddy 7G USB Sound Card

Buddy USB 7G™ Sound Pod is our seventh-generation USB adapter with a built-in high-quality sound card that replaces a desktop or laptop computer’s sound card for high performance speech sound input and output. Speech Recognition applications on the PC rely on good-quality sound input to perform at peak efficiency. The Buddy 7G USB Sound Pod has been redesigned with new noise cancelling algorithms! Plug-And-Play operation works right out of the box.

Buddy 7G™ technology is the only USB soundcard on the market that includes 2 separate DSP processors which completely isolates sound input from output. Other PCI and USB soundcards combine sound input and output by sharing a single DSP processor which doesn't fully isolate the sound and results in lowering the overall accuracy when sound output leaks into the input. Any USB soundcard works well for sound input but if you additionally require constant sound playback for music or transcription purposes, this is the sound card for you. Most PCs today have a built-in sound card or chipset, often placed close to noisy electrical circuitry such as the power supply or chips working at very high frequencies. This problem is particularly common in laptop computers.

Buddy USB 7G™ has the unique advantage of being largely immune to these noises as it is external to the computer chassis. It offers full duplex operation for connection with a microphone and speakers that are well-suited to speech recognition applications
