Troubleshooting

The recording is distorted

• Sound becomes distorted if the input level is too high. Set the input level to an appropriate
value.

“Adjusting recording levels” (p. 37)

Can’t record

• Recording is not possible if there is insufficient remaining time. The remaining recording time
is shown in the display in recording-standby mode. There is no remaining time if 00:00:00 is
shown. Check the amount of free space on the memory card.

“Estimated recording times” (p. 28)

• Recording is not possible if the memory card is not inserted properly. The display shows “No
Card” when the memory card is not recognized. Turn off power and re-insert the memory
card.

“Inserting” (p. 17)

• If the memory card is not formatted, the memory card is not recognized, and the display
shows “SD unformatted.” Format the memory card.

“Formatting” (p. 19)

• Recording is not possible if the write protect (LOCK) feature is turned on. Unlock the write
protect feature.

“SD Memory Card” (p. 20)

• Recording cannot be performed correctly if the input level set with the [INPUT LEVEL buttons]
is too low. Set a proper input level.

“Adjusting recording levels” (p. 37)

• When using an external microphone, connect it properly to the [MIC Input Jack]. Also check
the [EXTERNAL MICROPHONE TYPE Switch] settings.

“MICROPHONE GAIN switch” (p. 9)

• Memory cards must be formatted on the R-09 to operate properly. Memory cards formatted
on a PC may have the wrong format type. In these cases, the recording may stop
immediately after starting, or a proper recording may not be possible.

“Formatting” (p. 19)

A stereo song is created although a monaural microphone was used

for recording.

• The R-09 records in stereo. Even if a monaural microphone is connected and the [EXTERNAL
MICROPHONE TYPE Switch] is set to “MONO,” a stereo song with the same sound
recorded on both the L and R tracks is created.
