6.3.2 Set recording levels

Audio levels for the four recording channels are controlled automatically or manually. When
manual control is selected, the two rotary controls at the left-rear of the camcorder are used to
adjust the audio levels. These can be programmed to adjust a single channel or a combination
of channels (1+3, 2+4).
The front audio level control can be assigned to any channel. This control can be used together
with the rotary controls at the rear.
