Specifying the Recording Quality
You can specify the audio quality with which the recording will be
made.
The audio quality setting is a combination of the Sample Rate
(sampling rate) and the Rec Mode. The audio quality will affect the
size of the file, and will also affect the length of time over which
recording can take place with an microSD card.
Consider whether audio quality or length of recording are more
important for your situation, and choose the quality that’s
appropriate for you.
Sample Rate
(Default in bold)
Sample Rate
44.1 kHz
48.0 kHz
88.2 kHz
96 0 kHz
Higher sampling rates will provide higher audio quality. You’ll
need to use a high sampling rate if you want to accurately
reproduce the high-frequency range.
MEMO
5
Higher sampling rate settings will increase the size of the
file, and will shorten the available recording time.
5
If you are recording audio material that you’ll be editing into
a video production, we recommend that you use the 48.0
kHz sampling rate.
5
The R-07 is not able to convert the sampling rate of a
recorded file.
NOTE
5
If this setting is 88.2 kHz or 96.0 kHz, the only choices for Rec
Mode are WAV-16 bit and WAV-24 bit.
Rec Mode
(Default in bold)
Rec Mode
2xWAV-16bit
2xWAV-24bit
WAV+MP3
MP3-64kbps
MP3-96kbps
MP3-128kbps
MP3-160kbps
MP3-192kbps
MP3-224kbps
MP3-320kbps
WAV-16bit
WAV-24bit
WAV files allow higher-quality recording than MP3 files.
If you choose MP3, the file size will be smaller than WAV, allowing
you to record for a longer length of time. Higher settings for
“bit” or “bps” will increase the file size, shortening the available
recording time.
WAV+MP3 simultaneously creates both a WAV file and an MP3 file.
MEMO
5
Some software such as Windows Media Player cannot play
back 24-bit WAVE files.
NOTE
5
2xWAV-16 bit, 2xWAV-24 bit, MP3 and WAV+MP3 can be
selected only if the Sample Rate is 44.1 kHz or 48.0 kHz.
5
If you select WAV+MP3, the setting is fixed at WAV-16 bit and
MP3-128 kbps.

2xWAV (Dual level recording)
By choosing 2xWAV- as the Rec Mode, you can simultaneously
record at the specified input level (p. 17) and at an input level
approximately 20 dB lower than that input level. This setting is
recommended if there is a possibility that the recorded sound
might distort when the volume during actual recording is louder
than you expected.
When you record, two files are created. The examples below are
for when the file name is R07_0010.WAV.
R07_0010.WAV
Recorded at the specified input level
R07_0010
L
.WAV
Recorded at an input level 12 dB lower
