NOTES
• When the audio level meter reaches the red point (0 dB), the sound may be distorted.
• If the audio level meter display is normal but the sound is distorted, activate the microphone's
attenuator (A 73).
• We recommend using headphones to check the sound level while adjusting the audio recording
level or when the microphone attenuator is activated.
