3. Click on the Settings action icon to reveal the recording parameters

screen as shown.

4. Once you have clicked on the Record action icon (or Enter button),

you can pause the recording by clicking the Pause action icon (or

Enter button) and then stop the recording by clicking on the STOP

button.

You can record from any line-level audio source to the Gmini

™

500. Be careful that the source audio is supplying

a line level and not an ampliﬁ ed signal (turning down the volume on the player will work if you are using the

headphone out signal of your audio device). A signal that is ampliﬁ ed too much will make for a terribly distorted

recording.

Microphone

The built-in microphone is located on the top of the Gmini

™

500. Make sure that you have selected Microphone

as the input source in the pre-recording Settings screen. The microphone level is preset.

Incremental Recording

While recording, you will notice the incremental recording action icon. This allows you to create

incremental recordings. This means that the current recording stops and a new recording instantly

begins. The next recording has an additional number appended to its name. Thus if you create multiple

incremental recordings, you might, for example, have ﬁ les names of REC0000_01, REC0000_02, etc.

This is good for recording old cassettes and old vinyl records. You can click on this icon during the blank space

between each song. That way, each song of the vinyl disk or audio cassette will be one single music ﬁ le.

9.3 Where is the Recording Saved?

The default location for audio recordings is the folder called Music . This can be changed though. For example,

you click on the Music icon in the main menu and then you choose Browse Hard Drive . Notice that there is the

Launch Audiocorder action icon. Each time you use this button to start the Audiocorder application instead

of the AudioCorder button on the main menu, you set the recording default location to the current folder. For

example, let’s say you have a folder called / Music/Vinyls/Soul . If you go to this folder and then make a recording

using the action icon, you will set the default record location to this folder. Now, all your recordings you make with

the Audiocorder icon will be saved in the folder /Music/Vinyls/Soul .

9.4 Audio Editing

Audio ﬁ les (only recordings that were made from the AudioCorder icon) can be modiﬁ ed by deleting the sections

you do not wish included. If you would like to edit an audio recording, you have the possibility to cut the ﬁ le down

to the speciﬁ c part you want to keep. In the example below, you have recorded a lecture of 33 minutes and 22

seconds in length. You would like to cut out and save just one particular important section from 12 minutes and

15 seconds to 21 minutes and 5 seconds. The diagram below illustrates the situation.
