•The voice sync level can be set when voice sync recording is on (☞ P.76).

•[Rec Mode] cannot be changed in the recording standby mode or while recording. Configure this while the recorder is stopped (☞ P.65).

•This recorder is designed to be able to record cleanly and evenly, even in recording conditions such as when the volume of the source sound changes significantly. However, even higher sound quality recordings can be achieved by adjusting the recording level manually (☞ P.65).

3Press the 9or 0button to adjust the recording level.

•The level can be adjusted from [01] to [12]. The higher the number, the higher the level and the larger the indicator position on the level meter.

•If too big sound is input, the noise may occur even if [Rec Level] is set to [Auto] or [Limiter ON] (☞ P.65). Also, in certain cases the PEAK/LED indicator light, which notifies large input, may not light. To ensure successful recordings, we recommend that you test the record function and volume before use.

•When [Rec Level] is set to [Auto] the recording level will be adjusted automatically. Set [Rec Level] to [Manual] when using the recording level adjustment function and the limiter function (☞ P.65).
