5-5 Adjusting the Audio Level
• The second top bar may turn on occasionally, but do
not allow the top bar to go on. If it goes on, the audio
level is too high.
Correspondence between recording level
adjustments and audio level controls
In the AUDIO-3 page of the MAINTENANCE menu, you
can select which audio level control controls the audio
recording level of the front microphone input. The
correspondence between the controls and the menu items
and settings is as follows.
Note
When you have operation of the MIC LEVEL control and
LEVEL (CH-1/CH-2) controls linked together, if the
LEVEL (CH-1/CH-2) controls are set to 0, the audio
signals on channels 1 and 2 cannot be recorded. Check the
position of the LEVEL (CH-1/CH-2) controls before
adjusting the MIC LEVEL control.
