Various ways of recording

VOR (Voice Operated Recording)

VOR causes the recorder to automatically record when there is sound, and to pause when there is no sound. This allows you to record without troublesome button operations.

“VOR” appears in the display and the VOR indicator lights up when the recorder is recording. Both “VOR” and the VOR indicator flash when the recorder is not recording.

Notes

•You cannot record with the built-in microphones while an optional microphone is connected to the MIC (PLUG IN POWER) jack or an optical cable (not supplied) is connected to the LINE IN (OPTICAL) jack.

•VOR is sensitive to the surrounding sound conditions. Set the MIC SENS switch to H or L to suit the conditions. If you cannot get the desired recording results, cancel VOR and record in manual mode.

•Power from the batteries is consumed as long as VOR is on, even when recording is not taking place (i.e., when “VOR” and the VOR indicator flash.)
