Recording format settings
Set the recording format (compression format and channel) for recording.
< Default value > Preset1 : Stereo/CD-DA
Preset2 : Mono/MP3
Preset3 : Stereo/MP3
Notes
The recording format can only be changed when there are no tracks saved on the HD. There is only one HD recording format
available at onetime on the recorder. This cannot be changed if tracks are already recorded in a certain format. To change
the recording format, either burn the data to a CD-R, or format the HD. When data is burned to a CD-R, the data on the HD is
erased. Stereo/monaural can be changed.
[Recording format parameters]
The recorder can record in the following recording formats and channels.
• Compressed sound recording that uses MPEG Audio Layer III (MP3) in either monaural or stereo.
• Non-compressed sound recording that uses the 16-bit linear pulse code modulation used on a CD-DA.
• Non-compressed sound recording that uses WAVE (Windows standard audio file format)
• Non-compressed sound recording that uses AIFF (the audio file format developed by Apple Computer, Inc.)
The format parameters that can be recorded are as shown below.
