GB to hours for 192kHz / 24-bit mono PCM Audio
Snapshot
At 192kHz / 24-bit mono PCM, 16 GB stores about 7.72 hours of audio.
- Reference basis: This result uses the fixed 192khz / 24-bit mono pcm audio PCM profile to turn storage budget back into recording time from 576,000 bytes/s.
- Example: For 1 GB, the 192kHz / 24-bit mono PCM Audio PCM estimate gives about 0.48 hours of recording time.

Questions & answers
Frequently Asked Questions
Which PCM settings are fixed for gb to hours?
GB to hours uses 192000 Hz, 24-bit depth, and 1 channels for this profile.
How is the 34.56 MB per minute factor calculated for 192kHz / 24-bit mono?
Bytes per second = 192000 × (24 / 8) × 1 = 576000 bytes/s. Using decimal MB (1 MB = 1,000,000 bytes), that is 0.576 MB/s or 34.56 MB/min.
How do I reverse GB to h for 192kHz / 24-bit mono?
Use the opposite route for 192kHz / 24-bit mono to convert duration (hours) back to file size (gb) with the same PCM assumptions.
