Overview Table of Contents sections 1 2 3 4 5 6 File Size and Audio Resolution Using your iPod, you can choose the quality setting of your recordings. Your iPod Voice Memos screen allows you to set the recording quality to high quality or low quality. Choosing the right quality setting will help you make the most of your recordings. Low Quality The iPod low-quality setting records audio with lower fidelity, which is suitable for most voice recordings. In this setting, audio files are recorded at a sampling rate of 22.05kHz with 16-bit mono samples. Record in low-quality mode when audio fidelity is less important than the other considerations: file size and iPod battery conservation. Recording in low quality results in files that are much smaller than when recording in high quality. Because of this, you can fit much more audio content on your iPod by recording in low quality. For example, in high-quality mode, 10MB of storage space can hold approximately one minute of audio. But in low-quality mode, 10MB of space holds almost four minutes of audio. When recording to a 5th generation iPod with video or an iPod classic, recording in low quality tends to drain the iPod battery more slowly than high quality. When using batteries to power the GoStudio, instead of an AC power supply, this might be an important consideration. Note that when you choose to record in low quality, the GoStudio will mix the audio sources to a mono mix. If you're listening to your audio inputs through the GoStudio using headphones, you'll hear the same mono mix that the iPod is recording. High Quality The iPod high-quality setting lets you make recordings at a sampling rate of 44.1kHz with 16-bit stereo samples. Basically, this is the same quality as standard uncompressed audio CDs. Use high quality when you need the best audio fidelity or you want to capture audio in stereo. Recording in high quality results in relatively large files that must be stored by your iPod. Make sure you have enough room on your iPod to record your content. To estimate how much storage space you'll need, remember that one minute of audio requires about 10MB of storage space. Keep in mind that recording in high quality may drain the batteries of certain iPod models more quickly than low-quality recording, especially when using a 5th generation iPod with video or an iPod classic. Note that you don't need to worry about this when the GoStudio is powered with a compatible AC power supply, since the GoStudio will keep your iPod battery charged. GoStudio 16
