Thanks for sharing that information. If the LS-11 is capable of capturing a=
 4GB file in stereo WMA 64kb format, that would be 137 hours (more than 5 d=
ays) of continuous recording.

It's worth noting that, when using WAV format, the LS-10 and LS-11 will aut=
omatically save the current file and start a new one at the 2GB mark (somet=
imes referred to as "seamless recording"). In WAV, the recording session is=
 limited only by battery life and memory size.

As a practical matter, the internal battery lasts about 20 hours, so an ext=
ended recording session would require an external battery of some sort.
