Abstract
A system for providing input electrical ;signals, for processing the electrical signals to provide digital information, and for recording the processed electrical signals so that they may be retrieved from the system and the information recorded digitally visually presented by the system. The system is particularly well adapted for use with a multiple station dictation system in which the digital information embodied in the processed electrical signals includes the station from which a particular piece of dictation originated and the identification of the person who dictated it, the recorder upon which the dictation was recorded, information relating to the chronological order in which the dictation has been completed, and the length of the dictation. The system further provides means for recording this information on the tape at the end of each piece of dictation and for storing this information in a central storage. The system further provides means for retrieving the stored electrical signals and means for displaying the digital information contained in the electrical signals visually to a supervisor. Additionally, the system provides means for adding further information relating to the importance of transcribing the dictation and the progress which has been made in transcribing the dictation.
