This menu allows the user to select the desired compression level. Compressing the recorded sound would help to save disk space. With no compression each second of recorded sound will take approximately 22k of disk space. With 3 to 1 compression one second of sound will take 7.6k of space and at 6 to 1 compression only requires 3.8k of disk space. The compression process will somewhat reduce the fidelity of sound. The 3 to 1 compression offers a compromise between disk space and quality of sound.
