Notes on recording

•Be sure to set LINE/MIC setting properly, otherwise no sound will be recorded.

•When nothing is connected to the XLR connector and you set the LINE/MIC switch to MIC REAR, a noise may occur.

•When both CH-1 and CH-2 LINE/MIC switches are set to FRONT, adjust the sound level using the REC LEVEL dial and switch for CH-1 only.
