LCD screen

The unit will not display all the following indicators and items at the same time.

Hint:

· What is Linear PCM (Pulse Code Modulation) recording?

Linear PCM (LPCM) recording is a digital recording method that samples analog audio

signals at a certain frequency and saves them as digital signals without compression.

Music CDs (CD-DA–CD digital Audio) use PCM recording (sampling rate of 44.1kHz, bit

depth of 16-bit samples, bit rate of 1,411kbps, and frequency response from 20 to

20kHz).

PCM recordings are digitally-recorded unprocessed audio, and are supposed to be of the

highest sound quality. “WAVE” format is used to import these PCM recording files into a

computer. The WAVE file extension is “.WAV”. MP3 and WMA format files are created

by compressing the LPCM data.

· Recording margin indicator

Recording margin: space or margin (expressed in dB) between 0dB and the input peak

levels.
