i am not tech savvy by any means, i have no idea what bit rate means.

Thanks

Edit: I was confused by the terms this seems like it's recording mp3s and not .wav files so the terminology is different. I confused bit rate and bit depth.

Basically, if you have the disk space then use the highest bit rate you can. But setting 4 192K would be fine.

Hi,
what kind of device is this?
If this is a smaller device with limited storage I'd set the bitrate to 128kbps.
This should be high enough for decent recordings and small enough to be able to capture some hours.

Personally I'd also recommend setting the segmented recording to a lower value. I'd use 30 or max. 60 minutes to make the handling of files easier. If there's nothing interesting in a 30 minutes file you can simply delete it right away and then proceed to analyze the next file for interesting sounds. If you'd have one big 240 minutes file, you'd need to analyze everything in one go or cut out the boring parts to regain space.

Sound control recording seems to be 0 for off and 1-5 for voice activated recordings. I'd set it to the highest sensivity. This way you make sure that there is less stuttering or even missed parts if the noises you want to record are faint.

Gain setting at 7 seems fine, but you can still try to test lower gain settings if you're not satisfied with the results.

Best regards,

Cheers the device has a lot of disk space im pretty sure, as soon as i record something i check it afterwards if there is nothing there then i delete it.
I can record for 12 hours +. the reason why i set the sound control recording to 0 is because i put it in front of a window (recorded nothing) where there was 2 girls in. I do normally set it to the highest.

What is segment recording? Is it where it records for x amount of time and then when the time is up it stops or it keeps recording?

Segmented recording will just split the files after the specified amount of recording time. It will still continue to record.

Yeah, segmented recording Is designed for times when you're doing longer recording and something like a battery dying at hour 10 doesn't corrupt a single file. The last segment might not work but the other segments but the other sections/files have been saved in smaller chunks and are fine.

Thanks guys and last question it says in number 4 that the higher the number the louder it will be. Does that mean my device makes a sound
I cant remember what exactly number 4 says

What do you mean by "it says in number 4"?
In your screenshot number 4 is about the segmented recording.

Number 4 in your screenshot or in my post?
In your screenshot number 4 is about "segmented recording" in my post it's about "gain".
So I guess you're referring to my post.
If you set gain to the highest value it will increase the recording volume level to a maximum. This is good if you have faint distant noises which you want to record, but bad if you have normal/loud noises to be recorded from short distance. For example if you want to record a situation from 1 meter away the gain level set to maximum might cause the recording to be over-amplified and produce hissing noises or similar interference. If you're recording something from outside a room it might be best to set the gain to maximum level.

It really depends on the recording situation and the recording device. If I were you I'd try the maximum gain level first and do some tests with different recording situations (distances and volume to be recorded) to find out the best settings.

Best regards and good luck,
jinhui
