NOTE
• The [Zoom Mic] function has been set
so as to optimize its performance when
it is used with the voice recorder’s built-
in stereo microphone. Note that normal
recording may no longer be possible
when using a separately purchased
microphone or when recording from
another device using a connecting
cord.
• Using the [Zoom Mic] function will
make the battery deplete more quickly.
Reducing noise during recording
[Low Cut Filter]
The voice recorder’s low cut filter function
lets you make recordings that reduce
humming sounds from air-conditioners or
low-frequency sounds from equipment such
as projectors.
[On]:
Turns the low cut filter ON.
[Off]:
Turns the low cut filter OFF.
Voice-activated recording function
[ VCVA]
The voice-activated recording function
(VCVA) automatically starts recording when
a sound louder than a preset voice activation
level is detected, and automatically pauses
recording when the sound volume level
falls. Use this function to automatically omit
unneeded quiet segments when recording
(such as long silences during conferences),
saving memory.
[On]:
Turns VCVA ON. You can adjust the
voice activation level used for VCVA
(
☞ P.66).
[Off]:
Turns VCVA OFF. Restores standard
recording.
