ATTENUATOR
• When “MIC” is selected, set the MIC LOW CUT, MIC
LIMITER and MIC ATTENUATOR switches according to the
source signal and the type of microphone being used.
• If there is much low frequency noise in the background due
to wind, etc., set the MIC LOW CUT switch to “ON” to cut
out the low frequency portion.
• When the MIC LIMITER is set to “ON”, distortion due to
excessive microphone input is reduced.
• If the microphone sensitivity is high and the sound is hard
to adjust using the REC LEVEL control, set the MIC
ATTENUATOR switch to “-20dB”.
• When you use only one microphone, plug the microphone
to the L/MONO input terminal and set to “MONO” in the
“REC FORM” preset mode.
Set the time display to “REMAIN” to display the remaining
recordable time. (See page 27.)
When the REC button is pressed during recording, the file name is
incremented and recording continues.
The input signal can be monitored by headphones or LINE OUT
while in the record or record pause modes.
