• With the default settings of the AW16G, a maximum of 
30 seconds can be recorded in a sound clip. If you con-
tinue recording for longer than 30 seconds, the last 30 
seconds of your playing before you stopped recording 
will be recorded. (However, the counter display during 
recording will continue to advance.)
• In the UTILITY screen PREFER page, you can specify up 
to 180 seconds as the maximum length that can be 
recorded in a sound clip. You are free to make this set-
ting before creating a new song, but this cannot be 
changed once the song has been created. (
