Frequency
Choose the recording frequency (sample rate) - 48kHz, 44.1kHz, 32kHz (MPEG
version 1), and 24kHz, 22.05kHz, 16kHz (MPEG version 2) are available. Higher
sample rates use up more disk space, but give better sound quality. This setting
determines which frequency range can accurately be reproduced during
playback. Lower frequencies produce smaller files, for two reasons. The amount
of data to be compressed is smaller and the data is easier to compress, since
higher frequencies are not present. The frequency setting also determines
which version of the MPEG standard sound is recorded using.

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.

Independent Frames
The independent frames option tells the Jukebox to encode with the bit
reservoir disabled, so the frames are independent of each other. This makes a
file easier to edit.

Time Split

ime Split
This option is useful when timing recordings. If set to active it stops a recording at
a given interval and then starts recording again with a new file., which is useful
for long term recordings.
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.
Options (hours:minutes between splits): off, 24:00, 18:00, 12:00, 10:00, 8:00, 6:00,
4:00, 2:00, 1:20 (80 minute CD), 1:14 (74 minute CD), 1:00, 00:30, 00:15, 00:10,
00:05.
Prerecord Time
Prerecord TimePrerecord Time
Prerecord Time
This setting buffers a small amount of audio so that when the record button is
pressed, the recording will begin from that number of seconds earlier. This is
useful for ensuring that a recording begins before a cue that is being waited for.
Options: Off, 1-30 seconds
