When you record in monaural, you can record twice as much as in stereo (page 19)

When using a plug-in-power microphone, no battery is needed for the microphone since power is supplied by the recorder.

If you are using the optional stereo microphone ECM-717, set the switch on the microphone to OFF to allow the recorder to provide power to the microphone.

Notes

You cannot record through the externally connected microphone while an optical cable is connected to the LINE IN (OPTICAL) jack. The recorder automatically selects the recorder input in the following order of priority; optical input, externally connected microphone input, analog (line) input, and built-in microphones input.

The microphone may pick up the operating sound of the recorder itself. Use the microphone away from the recorder in such cases.
