The device can be easily placed on one side of desk while recording or can be put into the pocket when not in use.
2. Memory of the recorder
The recording in form of audio format or in some cases in video format needs to have enough memory capacity. The memory of the device should have sufficient space to store the sound files. The sound files get into compressed form when stored and saves lot of memory space. All different forms of sound files such as mp3, WAV and video files mp4, Avi are well supported by the recording device. Even it has the facility to add external memory, in case required.
3. Adjusting sampling & Editing
In order to get better sound quality, the options are available in the soft touch buttons that help in adjusting the sampling rate of the sound. Sometime it is useful to record the sounds at low sampling rate, which takes less space in the memory. The sound recorded with low sampling and high compression rate keeps the sound quality higher and uses a smaller amount of memory. Such features help in keeping the recording in better quality for longer time.
