What is C ELP?
C ode Excited Linear Prediction (C ELP) is an audio technology initially developed for use in cell phones. C ELP works by comparing incoming
sound signals to a model of human voice phonetics and saving the difference as an error report. When playing back the file, the error report
data is compared to the model to reconstruct the recording. The benefit is a very detailed file that employs lower bit rates and lower
sampling frequencies, resulting in a more efficient use of the flash memory of the recorder.
I already have Digital Wave Player installed on my computer because it came with an earlier model of the VN-Series that I purchased.
However, audio files from the VN-3100PC won't download to my computer. Why not?
Because of the C ELP technology employed in the VN-3100PC , it is necessary to use the bundled Digital Wave Player version 2.1 software to
download and manage files. To check which version is installed on your computer, look in the Digital Wave Player menu under Help and

What is VC VA?
Variable C ontrol Voice Actuator (VC VA) is a function that configures the recorder to record automatically only when sound is detected at a
pre-set level, and stop when the sound drops below the threshold level. The purpose of the function is to eliminate "dead air" during
recordings, thereby conserving memory and shortening file times.

Sub-folders can be named with up to 20 characters. Spaces are allowed, but some characters--such as backslash, ampersand, and colon-may not be employed because they serve other functions in computer languages. Using purely numeric naming models may create
problems when archiving audio files, therefore alphabetical or alphanumeric combinations are recommended.
To rename a folder, right-click on it, then left-click Rename Folder and overwrite the folder name.
To create a new folder or sub-folder, right-click on the folder and then left-click on Create Folder. In the Create New Folder dialog box,
type in the new folder name and click OK.
