<Available recording time after formatting>
A greater sampling frequency will reduce the available recording time/space after formatting. Under the same sam-
pling frequency setting, the greater quantization (bit number) reduces the available recording time.
The following table shows the "approximate available recording time" under each sampling frequency/quantization.
Depending on your medium, the available recording time may differ slightly. It will be a good idea to check the
available recording time after formatting.
