Turn the jog dial until “MIC SENS”
flashes in the display, and then press

Turn the jog dial until “SENS HIGH”

SENS HIGH: When recording a soft
sound or a sound in the distance.

Notes

The recorder automatically switches input in

the following order; optical input, microphone
input, and analog input. You cannot record
through the microphone while an optical cable
is connected to the LINE IN (OPT) jack.

The microphone may pick up the operating

sound of the recorder itself. Use the
microphone away from the recorder in such
cases. Do not use a microphone with a short
connector, as this may cause the operating
sound of the recorder to be picked up.

Only the left-channel sound is recorded when

a monaural microphone is used.
