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.

1

Start recording with the VCVA
switch set to ON.

When the volume falls to a preset level or
lower, recording automatically pauses, and
“STANDBY VCVA” flashes on the display.
The record/play lamp glows when recording
starts and flashes when recording pauses.

2

Using the VOLUME control, adjust
the start/stop actuation level.

The higher the VOLUME control is set, the
more sensitive the start/stop level becomes,
allowing recording to automatically begin at
a quieter level.

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

Notes

• The start/stop actuation level also varies depending on the selected

microphone sensitivity mode (

☞ P.21).

• To ensure successful recordings, prior testing and adjustment of the

start/stop actuation level is recommended.
