A file is stored in one of the following folders in the recorder's internal memory or on the microSD card. MIC (A-D) / MIC_(A-D)_SD: These folders store audio files (in WAV or MP3 format) recorded by the unit. There are four folders (A- D). You can organize the files by folders. For example, you can store musical performance files in folder A and conference recording files in folder B so that it will be easier for you to find desired files later. LINE (L) / LINE (L)_SD: These folders store files recorded from external devices via the line connection.
