Microphone Sensitivity

Microphone sensitivity is adjustable to meet recording needs.

..................................................................................................................................................

Notes

• When the speaker’s voice is to be recorded clearly, set it to [DICT] (dictation) mode. If breath directly

hits the microphone it will be noisy, so keep the microphone a little lower than the speaker’s mouth (5 to
10cm/2 to 4 inches) while recording.

• If background noise is affecting your recording even in [DICT] (dictation) mode, we recommend that you

either set the directional microphone (

☞ P36) to [Zoom] or [Narrow] or use an ME12 dictation microphone

(sold separately,

☞ P167).

While the recorder is stopped or
during recording, slide the Mic
Sense switch and select a
microphone sensitivity among
[LECTURE], [CONF], and [DICT].

Every time the setting is switched, it
cycles through the display’s microphone
sensitivities.

sensitivity suitable for conferences with
