SilentSkp (Silent Skip)

Silent skip automatically pauses recording when there is a period of silence and resumes recording when sound resumes. Sometimes this feature is referred to as voice activated recording. Silent Skip looks for sound below a preset level for a preset period of time. When that occurs the PMD570 switches to record pause. When a signal of about -30 dB is input record- ing resumes.

The SilentSkp Menu settings permit:

•turning Silent Skip On or Off

•adjusting the silent time period in one second intervals from 1 to 5 seconds, and

•adjusting the margin sound level that defines silence in -5 dB increments from -20 to -60 dB.

When the Auto Mark menu choice is at On resump- tion of recording after a record pause by Silent Skip adds an EDL mark.

Default settings are Off, 3 seconds, and -40 dB.
