The ME55S is the microphone for the DS-71 and DS-61.

The ME53S external microphone for the DS-50/40/30 cannot be used.

• If a recording is made in PCM, ST XQ, ST HQ and ST SP modes while the exclusive stereo microphone is unplugged, it will be a monaural recording through the built-in microphone, and same audio will be recorded on both Left channel (Lch) and Right channel (Rch).

• Stop the recorder before plugging in or unplugging a microphone.
