● System settings
1. Press the [MENU] button.
2. In 1 Recording Setup, set Input Select to Int+Ana.
3. Set the Rec Mode to STEREOx2.
Set the other items in 1 Recording Setup as appropriate
for the recording you want to make.
4. When finished with the settings, press the [EXIT] button
twice to return to the Main screen.
*If Rec Freq is set to 192 kHz after setting Int+Ana, Input Select is automatically changed to Digital and Rec
Mode is changed to STEREOx1.
* For more about system settings, refer to “System Setup” (p. 62).
● Limiter
Turn this OFF when recording an audio source whose levels have already been adjusted (in contrast to a
live audio source whose levels might change unpredictably), or if you have already checked the maximum
volume levels that are going to occur.
Turn this ON if you need to prevent clipping (distortion) caused by unexpected loud volumes or strong
attacks.
● Low cut
You can turn low cut on when breathing noise (the sound of breathing while recording a voice) or wind
noise (when recording outside) may be a problem.
The low cut feature records while cutting the lower range of the input signal.
● Input level knobs
These knobs adjust input levels.
Use the following when simultaneously recording sound from internal and external microphones.
Refer to Adjusting the input levels (p. 30).
