Recording Formats
Your A701 supports several formats for voice notes. The formats vary in both
the quality of the recording and the size of the sound file. When selecting a
recording format, you should consider the quality you need as well as how much
storage memory the recording will use on your A701.
Not all recording formats are compatible with other software or computers. If
you will share your recordings with others or transfer a recording to your
desktop computer, be sure to choose a recording format that is supported by the
software used to play recordings on the other computer.
The PCM format offers the highest quality recording and is compatible with all
Pocket PC models, other Windows-powered mobile devices and desktop
computers that use Windows operating systems. The GSM 6.10 format is
compatible with all Pocket PC models and other Windows-powered mobile
devices, but may not work with desktop computers.
To select a recording format:
Settings Personal Input
1. Tap .
Options
2. On the tab in the Input control panel, select a voice recording format
from the drop-down list.
The list of recording formats on your A701 indicates the sample rate, whether
the format is stereo or mono and how much storage memory is required per
second of recording. You may need to experiment with different sample rates
and formats to determine which format best suits your voice.
