Using The Variable Control Voice Actuator (VCVA)
When the microphone senses that sounds has reached a preset volume,
the built-in Variable Control Voice Actuator (VCVA) starts recording
automatically, and stops it when the volume drops.
Particularly helpful for extended recording, the VCVA not only conserves
memory by turning off recording during silent periods, but also makes
playback more efficient and convenient.
In Menu mode selection... On, OFF
s During recording, use the + and – buttons to adjust the VCVA level in 15 levels.
s The Record/play indicator light is lit during recording. When the recorder is in
Standby mode, the Record/play indicator light flashes and “VCVA” flashes on
the display.

Microphone Sensitivity (HI LOW)

s To ensure successful recording, make a test recording to choose appropriate
microphone sensitivity before recording.
s If you choose “HI”, we recommend setting the recording mode to XHQ or HQ to
best take advantage of the higher sensitivity.
