System limitations
There are some system limitations of the linear PCM recorder. The issues described below are not
malfunctions of the linear PCM recorder.
Symptom Cause/Solution
You cannot record files up to
the maximum recordable time. If a mixture of recording modes are used for recording, the maximum
recordable time depends on which recording modes are used
because the maximum recordable time varies among recording
modes. Therefore, the sum of the total recorded time indicated by the
counter (elapsed time) and the remaining recordable time may be
shorter than the maximum recordable time.
You cannot display or play back
music files in order. If you have transferred music files using your computer, those files are
sorted by the track number of meta-data or by the filename.
A file is divided automatically. The file being recorded has reached the maximum size limit (4 GB for
an LPCM file, and 1 GB for an MP3 file). Therefore, it is automatically
divided.
You cannot enter lowercase
characters. Depending on the combination of characters used for the name of
a folder made on your computer, the characters may change to all
capitals.
Unreadable characters or “  ”
are displayed in a folder name,
a folder name, file name, artist
name, or title.
A character which cannot be displayed on the linear PCM recorder has
been used. The linear PCM recorder cannot support or display some
special characters and symbols that can be entered using Windows
Explorer or Mac Finder.
When you set A-B repeat
playback, the set positions
move a little. Depending on the files, the set positions may move.
The remaining recordable time
becomes shorter when you
divide a file. You need a certain amount of free space for a file management
area to divide a file. Therefore, the remaining recordable time will be
shortened.
