Abstract
A voice recording-reproduction apparatus including a microphone, speaker, voice recording-reproduction circuit, recording medium, key input device and control circuit. The circuit is adapted to prepare a plurality of folders on the recording medium and to perform a data reading and processing operation for predetermined one of the folders in each mode. When a reproduction key of the key input device is depressed and if no data is recorded in the folder to be used in the mode at the time of the depression, the control circuit checks whether or not data is recorded in one of the other folders. When one of the folders is found to have data recorded therein, the control circuit sets the voice recording-reproduction circuit in a mode in which the folder is to be used for data reading and processing, and gives a reproduction command to the circuit.
