Adjusting the Recording Level

The R-05 is designed to let you record a wide range of sounds. By adjusting the recording level (volume) appropriately for the source you’re recording, you’ll be able to record with optimal quality. The basic principle when adjusting the level is to get the level as high as possible without allowing distortion to occur. This principle applies whether you’re using the built-in mics, an external mic, or LINE IN.

Manually adjusting the recording level

The level meter will move according to the loudness of the sound being input to the R-05.

If you’re going to record a musical performance such as an instrument or vocal, you should play the loudest passage of the song.

4.While the sound plays, use INPUT [+] [–] to adjust the recording level a little at a time.

You can’t adjust the recording level if AGC is on.

1.Point the R-05’s mics toward the source you’ll be recording.

2.In the main screen, press [ ] so the REC indicator is blinking.

The R-05 is in recording-standby mode.

3.On the audio source you’ll be recording, play the sounds that you actually intend to record.

If necessary, change the setting of the [MIC GAIN] switch (p. 47).

The higher the level at which the sound is being captured, the farther toward the right the level meter will move. Use INPUT [+] [–] to adjust the level so that the sound is captured at as high a level as possible. However, don’t allow the PEAK indicator to light; this indicates that the input volume is excessive.
