SD card storage.

Other cards will work, though the maximum number of tracks that can be recorded
may reduce, or more errors may occur. The maximum recording time is based on
the FAT32 file system used, which allows for mono WAV recordings (one for each
track) of around 8hrs (@48kHz) or 4hrs (@96kHz).

Before using a card for recording, ensure it has been formatted in the CQ using the
