Using the Variable Control Voice Actuator (VCVA)
When the microphone senses that sounds have reached a preset volume, the built-in Variable
Control Voice Actuator (VCVA) starts recording automatically, and stops when the volume drops.
Particularly helpful for extended recording, the VCVA not only conserves memory by turning off
recording during silent periods, but also makes playback more efficient and convenient by eliminating
silent periods.
1 Press the MENU/VOL switch.
2 Move the MENU/VOL switch down to choose
“VCVA”.
3 Press the MENU/VOL switch to
choose “ON”.
4 Press the STOP button.
This completes the VCVA setup procedure.
5 Press the REC button.
The recorder will start recording in VCVA mode.

Notes
• When the VCVA senses sound louder than its start/stop actuation level
setting, recording starts automatically. When it senses silence for 3
seconds or longer, recording pauses automatically and the recorder
enters standby mode.
• When recording is in progress, the record indicator lamp will glow.
When the recorder is in standby mode, “VCVA” will flash on the display
and the record indicator lamp will flash.
• Pressing the STOP button will stop recording whether the recorder is
recording or in standby mode.
