ABSTRACT:
An audio recorder obtains a PCM audio signal from input analog or digital audio data, encodes the PCM audio signal, and stores the encoded signal in a semiconductor memory. The encoding method is selectable from at least two different methods, providing different levels of audio quality. The semiconductor memory may be internal to the audio recorder, or may be an external memory device such as a flash memory card. An audio player decodes the signal stored in the semiconductor memory, and converts the decoded signal to a selected one of at least two output formats.
