The factory default setting for the preroll time is 5 seconds, but you can use basic menu item 001 to change this to any value from 0 to 30 seconds. If you change the preroll time, make sure that the setting is not longer than the recording length before the edit IN point.

Note that for automatic editing, the preroll time setting on the recorder takes precedence.
