The Digital Audio Player
Introduction
The Digital Audio Player enables you to play, record, and compress sound as .WAV
files. In addition, you can play .AUD files. The .WAV files use PCM, which is the
Windows‘ audio file format. The.AUD format uses ESPCM‘ compression to pro-
duce an audio file. Files are written directly to your hard disk as you record, en-
abling you to record very large files. Your only limitation is the amount of free space
on your hard disk. The voice activation feature is useful for recording any kind of
intermittent audio. The Digital Audio Player provides a choice of linear PCM (8 or
16 bit) recording. Note that you have additional options using the Audio Recorder,
which is invoked by the Edit button.
