Abstract (en)

[origin: DE19933541A1] The invention concerns a method for digitally recording an analog audio signal with automatic indexing, comprising the following steps: (a) introducing an analog audio signal containing audio data and pauses; (b) converting the analog audio signal into digital audio data consisting of audio information data and pause duration data; (c) storing the audio information data in the form of information data blocks and the pause duration data in the form of pause data blocks in a storage unit; (d) sequentially reading the stored data blocks and generating an index table, each series of information data blocks non-interrupted by a pause of a predetermined duration being identified as a coherent audio information data sequence whereof the beginning and the end are stored in the index table.
