Insufficient volume from
a device connected to
the EXT MIC

(L/MONO, R)

/LINE IN jacks

Could you be using a connection cable that contains an internal
resistor?

Use a connection cable—such as one from the Roland PCS series— that
does not contain an internal resistor.

Could the external mic’s sensitivity be set to “Low”?

If the sound from the external mic is still not loud enough even after
you’ve adjusted the input level, set the “EXT MIC Sens” to “High.”

41

The sound recorded via
the internal mics is not
loud enough

Have you adjusted the input level of the internal mics?

Turn the [MIC] knob to raise the input level of the internal mics.

37

The recorded sound is
noisy or distorted

Is the input level adjusted appropriately?

Adjust the input level so that the peak indicator lights briefly when loud
sounds are input.

37, 40,
42, 44

Could the input level be raised for a jack to which no device is
connected?

Even if no device is connected, we recommend that you turn down the
input level—turn the knob all the way to the left—for everything other
than the audio source you’re recording.

Could the [MIC SELECT] switch be in the “INT” position?

Even though you thought you were recording using an external mic, a
noisy recording may indicate that you were actually recording through
the internal mics. If you want to record using an external mic, set the
[MIC SELECT] switch to the “EXT” position.

39

Is the output level set correctly?

If you raise the output level too high, noise or distortion may occur in
the sound from the internal speakers. Turn the [OUTPUT LEVEL] knob to
adjust the volume.

60

An unwanted effect is
applied to the sound

Could you have selected a reverb?

Turn the reverb “Off.”

68

Volume changes are not
recorded correctly
according to the actual
performance

Could the [MIC LEVEL] switch be set to the “AUTO” position?

The “AUTO” position is suitable for recording human voices at a
meeting or lecture, and may be unsuitable for recording an instrumental
performance. Change the setting to “MANUAL,” and turn the [MIC]
knob to adjust the input level.
