  Recording Duration

  The table below shows the maximum recording time on SD/SDHC/SDXC cards of different capacities for different file formats for recording.

  File format(recording setting)		1GB
  		8GB	32GB	128GB
  WAV/BWF 16-bit(2ch)	44.1kHz	12:35	50:23	201:35
  	48kHz	11:34	46:17	185:13
  	96kHz	5:47	23:08	92:36
  	96kHz	2:53	11:34	46:18
  WAV/BWF 24-bit(2ch)	44.1kHz	8:23	33:35	134:24
  	48kHz	7:42	30:51	123:28
  	96kHz	3:51	15:25	61:44
  	96kHz	1:55	7:42	30:52

  • The recording times shown above are estimates. They might differ depending on the SD/SDHC/SDXC card in use.
  • The recording times shown above are not continuous recording times, but rather they are the total possible recording times for the SD/SDHC/SDXC card.
  • If recorded in mono in WAV files, the maximum recording time will be double the figures above.
  • For dual and 4-channel recording in WAV/BWF format, the recording times are about half those shown above.
