Variable Control Voice
Actuator [VCVA]
When the microphone senses
that sounds have reached a
preset threshold volume level,
the built-in Variable Control Voice
Actuator (VCVA) starts recording
automatically, and stops when the
volume drops below the threshold
level. The VCVA feature extends
recording time and conserves
memory by stopping recording
during silent periods, which helps
the playback to be more efficient.
[ON]: Enables the VCVA function.
[OFF]: Disables this function.
Adjust the start/stop actuation level:
If the surrounding noise is loud,
the starting sensitivity of the VCVA
can be adjusted according to the
recording situation.

when recording pauses.

the start/stop actuation level.

sounds. At the highest value,
even the faintest sound will
activate recording.
