Tips for Using the Built-in Microphone
Recording a sound centering on a specific direction
To record a sound centering on a specific
direction, slide the DIRECTNL switch to
“ON” position. When you record a
sound at a conference/meeting or in a
spacious place etc., use this setting.
Note
The DIRECTNL switch functions only in the “SP” or
“LP” recording mode. In the ST or STLP modes
where the high-performance sound reproduction is
important, sound is recorded in the stereo mode
without regard to the DIRECTNL switch “ON”/
“OFF” position. For details of recording modes, see
page 53.
Recording a sound not centering on a specific direction (all-
directional recording)
Slide the DIRECTNL switch to “OFF” position.
Selecting the sensitivity of the built-in microphone
You can select the microphone sensitivity by setting the SENS (page 53) in
the menu according to the recording conditions:
•H (high): To record a small sound at a meeting or in a quiet and/or
spacious place.
•L (low): To record for dictation or in a noisy place.
You can change the SENS setting with the menu during recording.
