MANUAL RECORDING

Manual recording is like VOX recording, except you control when recording begins and ends. Set VOX to OFF, then press

RECORD to begin recording. Press STOP/EJECT to stop recording, or press PAUSE in to temporarily stop recording.

USING AN EXTERNAL MICROPHONE

The CTR-116’s built-in microphone works well in most situa- tions, but you can connect an external microphone (not sup- plied) with a 1/8-inch (3.5-mm) plug to the recorder’s MIC jack. This automatically disconnects the built-in microphone.

Note: Your local RadioShack store sells a variety of micro- phones.

Set VOX to HIGH or LOW for VOX recording, or to OFF for manu- al recording.

If the microphone has an ON/OFF switch for remote control, connect the microphone to the CTR-116’s REMOTE and MIC jacks. Then you can start and stop recording with the switch on the microphone.
