CFexpress was really developed for photography with modern cameras...
In burst mode, when shooting RAW files, a modern Nikon still camera can pop off up to 20 pictures a second, at up to 50 mB each...
And, when you do that, you need to store a huge amount of data really fast so you can shoot again...
And, of course, something like 4k video, in a format that doesn't use a lot of compression, also has pretty extreme data requirements.
However normal two-channel audio recording doesn't require anywhere near that...
One thing I would note is that, when it comes to small hand-held devices, there are usually data bottlenecks at various spots in the signal chain.
Because of this, you usually DO want to use the memory speed recommended by the manufacturer, or even a step or two above that...
But you may or may not benefit from using significantly faster memory - in terms of the recording process.
(But, as I said in another post, you may really enjoy that extra speed when dumping your memory card onto a computer...)
Problem is I don't know how much SPEED you actually need on the memory end.....Some of the new SD stuff.....Video Rated.....can be fast.
Several hundred meg / sec real write speeds.....CFexpress should double that. IF you need such capacity.
But this IS funny to me. Boom was supporting and dealing with a 4 operating system music system. I don't know that turned out.
I think SONY came up with it.....but right this minute? I Know that Nikon supports the format, but I'm unclear about anyone else.....or WHAT.
