The latest update to version DSS Player Plus v7.5.4 restores Olympus audio functionality back to the Mac, a relief for the many Mac transcription typists left in limbo over the last couple of weeks.

Sure, they may not have been too happy about social media posts highlighting the Mac issue, but Olympus Mac (and Windows) users are a dedicated bunch with plenty of brand loyalty. The audio products are fantastic, the support from dealers is second to none and customer satisfaction is high. Well done Olympus for getting the fix out so quick.
