Question: How much hard drive space does an audio recording take?

Answer:

At 16 bit 44.1 kHz, which is the CD standard, the rate is generally about 10 Mb per minute of audio recorded. Thus, an 800Mb file would be equivalent to 80 minutes of audio. The higher the resolution and sample rate of a recording, the more hard drive space is required. Here in detail are hard drive space requirements, depending on bit depth, sample rate and length of recording.
