Hi Karen,

I use an Olympus digital voice recorder (nothing fancy) then transfer files to my office PC for storage. When needed, the wav files can easily be transferred to most SGDs via flash drive.

For patients who prefer to do it on their own, I provide instructions from www.augcomsol.com – courtesy of the ModelTalker folks plus Bruce Fleming, Dave Beukelman & Michelle Gutmann. I’ve attached the PDF.

Hope that helps!

Is anyone using voice banking with their ALS patients? If so, what are you using (e.g., special program, recording to personal computers, etc.) and how is it working for you? Any information would be MOST helpful! Thank you so much!
