This goes in the direction of what I suggested. This should be a loop:
After ending the recording the recorder should wait for the start of
the next recording right away...

Also it would be very useful to set up a minimum recording length. This would
allow you to compensate for audio material that has a known length but many
long pauses - like the radio drama I intend to record...
