•
to the end of each project name.
A new le cannot be created if the total number of les and
•
folders would exceed 5000.
Files shorter than two seconds cannot be created. If the
•
sampling frequency is 96 kHz, les shorter than four
seconds cannot be created.

that of an existing le, the number will be incremented until
the new le has a unique name.
