19.4.1. Differences in recording and sound quality settings.

In Book Creator mode, the additional recording parameter called “Split

phrase setting when no sound” is added. This enables PLEXTALK to create

a new phrase after a specified time with no audio input. There are 5
available settings to choose from. These range from 0.2 seconds up to 1

second in 0.2 second steps. The default setting for all DAISY recording

modes is 0.4 seconds.

The additional sound Quality setting ”PCM 22.05kHz Mono”, can be used
in Book creator mode. The available recording time with this sound

quality, for a range of different media, is detailed below:

CD-R or CD-RW, Type 74, 650MB: 4 hours

CD-R or CD-RW, Type 80, 700MB: 4.3 hours

CF card, 64MB: 24 minutes

CF card, 256MB: 1.5 hours

CF card, 1GB: 6.5 hours

19.4.2. Switching recording method.

In Normal mode, all new recordings are automatically appended to the
end of the DAISY title. In Book Creator mode, you are able to select

between 2 methods of recording. These are "Insert" and "Punch-in". You

can use the Number 1 Key to switch between these 2 recording methods.

The first time you press the Number 1 key, PLEXTALK will speak the

currently selected recording method. After this, each press of the Number
1 key will switch between "Insert" and "Punch-in" recording.

The last selected recording method will remain the default setting until

you change it again.


NOTE: Both "Insert" and "Punch-in" recording enable you to use a third

recording method called "Overwrite". This method of recording is only

available to you during recording in one of the other 2 methods and

cannot be selected as a recording method on its own.
