MANUAL RECORDING

Manual recording is like VOX recording, except you control
when recording begins and ends. Set

VOX

to

OFF

, then press

RECORD

to begin recording. Press

STOP/EJECT

to stop

recording, or press

PAUSE

in to temporarily stop recording.

USING AN EXTERNAL MICROPHONE

The CTR-116’s built-in microphone works well in most situa-
tions, but you can connect an external microphone (not sup-
plied) with a

1

/

8

-inch (3.5-mm) plug to the recorder’s

MIC

jack.

This automatically disconnects the built-in microphone.

Note: Your local RadioShack store sells a variety of micro-
phones.

Set

VOX

to

HIGH

or

LOW

for VOX recording, or to

OFF

for manu-

al recording.

If the microphone has an ON/OFF switch for remote control,
connect the microphone to the CTR-116’s

REMOTE

and

MIC

jacks. Then you can start and stop recording with the switch on
the microphone.
