•To record a meeting and lecture clearly, set other than [LP] in [Rec Mode].

•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.
