4 Turn the jog dial repeatedly until “From End” flashes in the display, and then press to enter.

To start recording from the current point

Select “From Here” in step 4.

Notes

•The setting will remain even after the power is turned off.

•If you start recording while the recorder is in play-paused, the recording will begin from the point at which it is paused even when the “REC-Posi” is set to “From End”.

Recording from a microphone

See the illustration in English text (page 29).

1 Connect a stereo microphone (ECM- 717, ECM-MS907, ECM-MS957, etc., not supplied) to the MIC (PLUG IN POWER) jack.

2 Press and slide REC to the right.

To select microphone sensitivity

1 Press the jog dial while the recorder is stopped.

2 Turn the dial repeatedly until “MIC SENS” flashes in the display, and then press to enter.

3 Turn the jog dial repeatedly to select “SENS HIGH” (when recording a soft sound or a sound in the distance) or “SENS LOW”(when recording a loud sound or a sound at close range), and then press to enter.

Notes

•The recorder automatically switches input in the following order; optical input, microphone input, and analog input. You cannot record through the microphone while an optical cable is connected to the LINE IN (OPT) jack.

•The microphone may pick up the operating sound of the recorder itself. Use the microphone away from the recorder in such cases. Please note that the sound of recorder operations may be picked up if the microphone that you use has a short connector.

•Only the left-channel sound is recorded when a monaural microphone is used.

Adding track marks automatically at specified intervals (Auto Time Stamp)

See the illustration in English text (page 30).

Use this feature to add track marks automatically at specified intervals when recording through the analog input connector or a microphone.

1 While the recorder is recording or in recording pause, press the jog dial.

2 Turn the jog dial repeatedly until “TIME MARK” flashes in the display, and then press to enter.

3 Turn the jog dial repeatedly until the desired time interval flashes in the display, and then press to enter. Select one of the following intervals: “OFF”

“5 min. ON” (track marks are added in every 5 minutes.)

“10 min. ON” (track marks are added in every 10 minutes)

“15 min. ON” (track marks are added in every 15 minutes)

To cancel the setting, select “OFF” in this step.

Notes

•Automatic track marking by Auto Time Stamp starts when you add a normal track mark to the disc (i.e., by pressing T MARK or X, etc.).

•The setting will be lost when the recording stopped.
