Automatically cutting unnecessary
silences when recording (silent cut
function)
When recording, the unit can pause when it detects silence
for a certain amount of time, and then restart recording
when it detects an input signal again. Since this cuts
unnecessary silence during recording, space on the card
can be conserved.

A.REC
item on the Function Screen and
the
LEVEL
item on the
AUTO REC
menu page as
described above.

When the input sound exceeds the level set in the

automatically pauses.
