Microphone sensitivity
Microphone sensitivity is adjustable to meet
recording needs.
[CONF]:
This is a highly sensitive mode which
can record surrounding noises.
[DICT]:
This is the standard level of
microphone sensitivity. Select this
mode for cases where the volume of
the source sound is high, such as a
band performance.
Note
• When you would like to clearly record
a speaker’s voice, set the MIC SENSE
CONF/DICT switch to [DICT] and
hold the recorder’s built-in stereo
microphone close to the speaker’s
mouth (5-10 cm) before recording.
Notes
• Recording level cannot be controlled
using the volume button.
• When using the earphones, do NOT set the
volume too high. Listening at very high
volume may lead to hearing loss.
• Do not place earphones near a
microphone as this may cause feedback.
• When the external speaker is connected
while recording, there is a risk that audio
feedback will occur.
