What size is that buffer?
Not much. In the Tascam DR-40 it is two seconds. In the Zoom H4N it is two seconds unless recording 96KHz 4 channel, then it's only one second.
In both cases the intent is that you hit it immediately if you hear something you wish to record, not minutes later. There are some devices with longer buffers, 5 seconds for instance isn't to difficult to find, but none with time frame in the minutes for example.
