About the data types
You must select the "data type" when you create
a new song on the MICRO BR. Choose one of the
following data types.
Data type Explanation
HiFi (MT2) Lets you record at high audio quality.
Choose this if you intend to bounce
tracks. This is the data type you will nor-
mally use.
STD (LV1) Lets you record for longer times than
"HiFi."
LONG (LV2) Of the three types, this allows the longest
recording. Choose this if you don't have
much space on the memory card.
Recording time
The following table shows the recording time
available on one card of the listed capacities.
(These times are calculated as if you're recording
just a single track.)
