Preset defaults
The default Menu settings for Presets 1, 2 and 3 can be restored by the Default Menu choice, page 39.
Preset1 default uses the unbalanced (ANALOG IN RCA jacks), line level, inputs. It is set for stereo channel music recording with MP3 compression. Selecting a higher bit rate (kbps) will improve audio quality but decrease available recording time.
Preset2 default uses the unbalanced (ANALOG IN RCA jacks), line level, inputs. It is set for Mono channel recording with MP3 compression. The settings are appropriate for recording meetings: quality acceptable for voice recording, long recording times possible, and capability to transfer files on internet.
Preset3 default uses the balanced (BALANCED IN XLR jacks) inputs. It is set for stereo channel CD quality recording with no compression.
See chart below on page 24 for complete default settings.
Note:
Setting any preset to default resets the main clock. We recommend you set the date when you set a preset to default. See page 26.
