The Nuance PowerMic 4

Introducing the PowerMic 3’s successor: The Nuance PowerMic 4 microphone.

With the same plug-in-and-play USB connectivity and flexible mouse function, the device still has user-favourite features that make it one of the top microphones for speech recognition.

However, the manufacturers at Nuance have worked hard to improve various aspects of the microphone to ensure the best possible results for its users and with Dragon speech recognition.

Let’s take a look at what these new features are…

Improved microphone quality

The PowerMic 4 has new and improved unidirectional noise cancellation quality making the audio even clearer and more accurate.

Additional programmable buttons

As mentioned above, the programmable buttons are a key feature that sets the PowerMic above other models. This is exactly why Nuance have added a further two buttons that users can customise to suit their needs and workflow.
