Relationship between the maximum num­
ber of phrases, sound quality level, and re­
cording (playback) time
If the maximum number of phrases is set to 8 and the
sound quality level is set to 1 (standard), the record­
ing time for one phrase will be 4 seconds. Since the
phrase number goes from 1 to 8, eight different re­
cordings are possible. To increase the recording time,
set the maximum number of phrases to 1 and the
sound quality level to 3. The recording time will be­
come 96 seconds. In this case, only one phrase can be
recorded, so the currently recorded phrase will be
erased when a new one is recorded. Set the maxi­
mum number of phrases and the sound quality level
as required. The recording (playback) time for each
phrase cannot be set.
