Mobile Voice is a 2.4 KB audio codec (compressor/ decompressor). It is the recommended format because it provides good voice recording and takes up far less storage space than PCM.

Pulse Code Modulation (PCM) provides slightly better sound quality. However, PCM recordings may take up to 50 times more storage space than Mobile Voice recordings. PCM cannot be used to create recordings that are embed- ded in notes.
