It will simply pipe the default input/output device.Īs mentioned by the other user, you should just be able to "connect the USB device" to the Virtual Machine. That is, you can't tell Fusion to use a specific sound device as input or output. In fact, with the Fusion RC, you cannot use multiple Sound devices. I have never had to "trick" DNS into using a pseudo line-in. I have at times forgotten to connect the USB mic, launched DNS, and received a message to the effect that it can't find the mic, then connected the mic into Fusion, and merely continued loading my user into DNS. I honestly don't recall the specifics, but I just plug in the USB mic, and/or make sure that it is connected in Fusion, and launch DNS. How does the setup of the USB mic work in Fusion? Do you let Fusion recognize the mic as a USB mic, or do you (as in Parallels) tell the VM to ignore USB, designate your audio input source as "line-in" in DNS, and let OS X recognize the USB mic? I dictate and edit 45-100 page documents into WordPerfect 10, now in a Fusion VM. I copied/imported my speech files from the Boot Camp partition into the VM. For what its worth, I can even play streaming audio or iTunes in OSX through the speakers, while AT THE SAME TIME dictating and playing back my dictation through the USB headset, obviously with Dragon in the VM. Better still, I have been running it in a new VM (again, XP), and have to say it works very well. Fusion B4, using the Boot Camp partition worked great.

It never worked right with the Parallels trial that I tried. Naturally speaking 8 has always worked in Boot Camp (Win XP, SP2), and quite well at that. I have an intel imac with 2 Ghz duo core 2, 1GB RAM.
I think it will work but.my choice will be Boot Camp. However, if you're asking if Fusion will run DNS, I haven't tried it myself but there are reports that it does - search the forums for "Dragon Naturally Speaking"įor Dragon you need lot of memory and a good performing processor. I highly doubt VMware will support another company's unrelated product.
What follows is some proof - DNS works well on Macs via VMware Fusion, but like most technology, it also takes some work on the part of the user. However, then came Intel Macs, Boot Camp, VM Fusion, and other brilliant streams of welcome light! Yes, Virginia, there is a Santa Claus! Based on experience, regrettably, they do not even come close to Dragon NaturallySpeaking Pro's performance, accuracy, ease of use, documentation, and all the other criteria one could list. Without getting into the Darwinistic market forces that shaped their placement on the technological evolutionary tree, we'll just leave the discussion of voice recognition apps for Mac OS e.g., iListen, ViaVoice, etc., by describing them as exceedingly disappointing.

However, until recently, DNS was not a truly viable option (fast and high-performing) for running on Macs, and voice recognition software made for Mac OS still leave much to be desired.

My allegiance is to Apple computers for all the reasons any reader of this document will already know.Īs any longtime Mac lover/user (my 1st Apple was a Mac SE, 20 MB HDD, with what was then a sizzling upgrade - 8 MB of RAM), I think that most who are also familiar with adaptive technologies would agree that DNS Pro is the most sophisticated consumer voice recognition software available. As devoted a DNS Pro user I am, it's devotion born of necessity. Those familiar with adaptive technologies will be aware, though, that DNS is Windows only app.

veteran, currently using DNS Pro on a PC running Windows XP Pro, it's been a treasure.

DNS Pro Edition comes in at least three (3) "flavors" - DNS Pro, DNS Legal, and DNS Medical (Legal and Medical have built-in, additional technical & professional vocabularies), and there may be other "flavors" out there as well.Īs a disabled U.S. It now (v.9) comes in three (3) editions - levels of sophistication and functionality - Standard, Preferred, and Professional (Pro). I hope people continue to add to and build this document's usefulness.ĭragon NaturallySpeaking is an excellent voice recognition software by Nuance (formerly ScanSoft) - for my money, DNS is the best voice recognition software on the market. It's not fancy, nor all that technical, but for me, it contained some solid, practical pointers to running and troubleshooting DNS in VM Fusion.
Naturally, all the credit belongs to those dedicated, experienced people who contributed their time, energy and experience to it's development. I take no credit for creation of the substance of this document (which I've found to be quite helpful). Original Thread Title: "Will VMware support Dragon Naturally Speaking (DNS)?"
