MicrophoneSensitivity
Microphone sensitivity is adjustable to meet
recording needs.
Using the MICSENS switch, choose
between the CONF and DICT positions.
CONF
:High-sensitivity mode that records
sounds in all directions.
DICT :Low-sensitivity mode suited for dictation.
Notes
• If you want to clearly record dictation, switch to DICT
mode and place the internal microphone close (5 to 10
cm) to the speaker.
• If the ambient (background) noise is too loud to get a
clear recording even in DICT mode, we recommend that
you use an ME-12 single directional microphone (sold
separately).
