•When the external monaural microphone is used while [Rec Mode] is set to a stereo recording mode, it enables recording only with the L channel microphone.

Low Cut Filter

The recorder has a Low Cut Filter function to minimize low-frequency sounds and record voices more clearly. This function can reduce noise from air conditioners, projectors and other similar noises.

[On]:

Enables the Low Cut Filter function. [Off]:

Disables this function.

VCVA

When the microphone senses that sounds have reached a preset threshold volume level, the built-in Variable Control Voice Actuator (VCVA) starts recording automatically, and stops when the volume drops below the threshold level. The VCVA feature extends recording time and conserves memory by stopping recording during silent periods, which helps the playback to be more efficient.

[On]:

Enables the VCVA function. Will start recording in VCVA mode.

[Off]:

Disables this function. Will resume recording in normal mode.

Adjust the start/stop actuation level:

1Press the RECsbutton to start recording.

•When the sound volume is lower than the preset threshold sound level, recording automatically stops after

1 sec approximately, and [Standby] flashes on the display. The recording indicator light glows when recording starts and flashes when recording pauses.

2Press the 9or 0button adjust the start/stop actuation level.

•The VCVA level can be set to any of 15 different values.

•The higher the value, the more sensitive the recorder to sounds. At the highest value, even the faintest sound will activate recording.

a Level meter (varies according to the sound volume being recorded)

b Start level (moves to the right/left according to the set level)

•The start/stop actuation level also varies depending on the selected microphone sensitivity mode (☞ P.23 or P.38 ).

•If the starting level is not adjusted within 2 seconds, the display will return to the previous.

•If the surrounding noise is loud, the starting sensitivity of the VCVA can be adjusted according to the recording situation.
