Reply To: Understanding Recording Time equation

Thank you for your inquiry.

We will answer to the following.

1.
Yes, you can set arbitrarily.
But sample network files and transfer functions are based on 512 / 160 settings.

The value for LENGTH is derived by:
32 ms = 0.032 seconds
16000 Hz * 0.032 seconds = 512

The value for ADVANCE is derived by:
10 ms = 0.01 seconds
16000 Hz * 0.01 seconds = 160

Why use the values 32ms and 10ms?

2.
A brief description is in the cookbook.

For the same reason as the second answer.
