•If you want to record clear or noise-free dictation, select DICT

mode and place the microphone 3 to 4 inches from the source.

•If the ambient (background) noise is too loud to get a clear

recording even in DICT mode, we recommend that you use an

ME12 single directional microphone (sold separately).
