9.4. Channels
This allows you to select mono or stereo recording. Please note that for mono recording,
only the left channel is recorded. Mono recordings are usually somewhat smaller than
stereo.
9.5. Independent Frames
The independent frames option tells the player to encode with the bit reservoir dis-
abled, so the frames are independent of each other. This makes a file easier to edit.
9.6. File Split Options
This sub menu contains options for file splitting, which can be used to split up long
recordings into manageable pieces. The splits are seamless (frame accurate), no audio
is lost at the split point. The break between recordings is only the time required to stop
and restart the recording, on the order of 2 – 4 seconds.
