Setting advanced recording options

You can use the Advanced Recording Options dialog box to change the maximum recording time and to identify the total available recording time based on the amount of free disk space on your computer. A minute of recorded audio requires approximately 1 megabyte (MB) of disk space. Before you start a recording, you can verify that there is enough free disk space on your computer to record and save your music.

To set advanced recording options

  1. On the Record your music page, click Advanced.
  2. If you do not want Analog Recorder to automatically detect and split tracks, clear the Automatically detect and split tracks check box.

    The option to automatically detect and split tracks is turned on by default. You may want to turn off this option if you are recording a book on tape or other audio content that includes significant periods of silence which Analog Recorder will split into individual tracks.

  3. To change the maximum recording time, type a value in the Maximum recording time in minutes box.

    The value for Time available based on free disk space identifies the total amount of available recording time based on the amount of free disk space on your computer.
