through the external

An external microphone that
must be supported by plug-in
power is connected but [Plug-

This could potentially be because
the output level for the connected
external devices is too low.
If adjusting the recording level does not help you
get a clear recording, adjust the output level for the
connected devices.
Recording level too
high
The recording level has not
been adjusted.
Adjust the recording level and then try
recording once more (

This could potentially be
because the recording level
and output level for connected

If you cannot record clearly even after adjusting the
recording level, then adjust the output level for the
connected devices (
P. 37 ).
Files are not recorded
in stereo

microphone is monaural.
When recording while an external monaural
microphone is connected, the sound will only be
recorded by the L-channel.
