To change the number of audio channels to be recorded
Change the setting of extended menu item 818 between 2-channel (2CH)
mode and 4-channel (4CH) mode (4CH).
Adjusting the audio recording levels
When carrying out audio recording at a reference level
Leave the REC controls pressed in. The audio signals will be recorded at a
preset reference level.
Manually adjusting the recording levels
For each channel, pull out the REC control in the upper control panel, and
adjust so that the audio level indication is 0 dB for an average volume.
Carry out the adjustment in E-E mode.
For details of selecting the E-E mode, see the description of the REC button in the
tape transport control section (page 22) and the PB/EE button in the monitor/
menu/display setting section (page 17).
To change the display range of the audio level meters
Press the METER FULL/FINE button (see page 16).
Setting the reference level
The analog input reference level is determined by the settings of the
AUDIO IN LEVEL/600
Ω
switch (see page 32) and extended menu item
811. When, for example, the AUDIO IN LEVEL/600
Ω
switch is set to
+4 dBm (HIGH-ON) and extended menu item 811 to –20 dB, the reference
level is set to –20 dB, causing +4 dBm analog input to be converted into a
–20 dB digital signal.
