2.Connect the external source to the AUX jack using a patch cord with a 1/8-inch plug.

VOX Recording

When you use VOX recording, the re- corder automatically begins recording when it senses a voice or other sound, then automatically stops when the sound stops.

To start VOX recording, set VOX to ON then adjust VOLUME/VOX SENS to set the sound level at which recording be- gins. Rotating VOLUME/VOX SENS to the left increases the VOX sensitivity. The higher the VOX sensitivity, the lower the sound level is needed to start VOX re- cording.

Recording from a Connected Audio Source

You can record directly from an external audio source, such as a radio, tape deck, or CD player. To make the con- nection, you need a suitable mono patch cord with a 1/8-inch (3.5-mm) plug (avail- able at your local RadioShack store).

Note: Before you connect an external audio source to the recorder, be sure the source’s volume control is set to its minimum setting.

Follow these steps to record from an ex- ternal audio source.

3.Start the external audio source and set its volume control to a normal lis- tening level.

4.Press RECORD to begin recording. Both PLAY and RECORD lock down.

Note: To temporarily stop recording, press PAUSE. To resume recording, press PAUSE again.

5.The recorder automatically stops the tape when it reaches the end of the current side. To stop recording sooner, press STOP/EJECT. Then stop the audio source.

Note: During recording, the speaker is muted. If you want to monitor the record- ing, connect an earphone (not supplied) (see “Using an Earphone” on Page 4).
