4.4Recording MP3 Music

With the Gmini series, you do not need a computer to create MP3 music files. It is capable of recording from the built-in microphone or an analog line source (from a HiFi system, portable stereo, CD Player, etc.). Before the actual recording begins, there is a pre-recording screen which will allow you to adjust your recording settings. See section 4.2.5 of this manual for a complete explanation of these parameters.

Contextual Menu while in the Double Browser

By using the unique Archos double browser system, you can copy or move files from one location in the file structure to another (caution: there is a limit of 1000 files per folder). While in the Browser mode, you simply click the RIGHT button and a second browser window will open. You can jump between the two windows using the LEFT/RIGHT buttons. Wherever the cursor is highlighting a file or folder, that window is the source for the copy. The destination folder will be the other window. Once you

have decided on the destination folder, move to the source

Source Destination browser window, highlight the file to copy, and then click on the MENU button. You can now choose Copy file to copy the highlighted file, Copy All Files to copy all the files in that folder to the destination folder, or Move File to move it to the destination folder.

1.From the main menu screen, select Recorder then click on OK.

3.The Record Settings selection from the MENU button reveals the recording parameters screen as shown here. Be sure to set the correct Source. You will hear silence during the recording and playback if the incorrect source is chosen.

2.In the pre-recording screen, adjust the recording level* by using the LEFT/RIGHT buttons (line-in recording only). You can click on PLAY to start the recording or you can click the MENU button then select Record Settings to set the recording parameters.

4.Once you have clicked on the PLAY/PAUSE button to start your recording, you can pause the recording by clicking that button again, or stop the recording by clicking on the STOP button.

be tricked by the volume of the headphones which can be adjusted with the UP/DOWN buttons.Gmini theUsing
