•
When using a mic to record, use headphones for monitoring.
If you use speakers for monitoring, the sound output from the
speakers could be picked up by the mic, resulting in its unwanted
recording or feedback noise.
Adjusting the input level
Before starting recording, the input level should be adjusted to
prevent the recorded sounds or signals from being distorted due to
excessively large input signals or from being inaudible due to exces-
sively low input signals compared to noise.
In addition to manual adjustment, the unit has the following three
level adjustment functions: peak reduction, automatic level control,
and limiter. Any of these can be used as required. (See “Using the
limiter” on page 48. )
TIP
In addition to adjusting the INPUT level, try changing the
distance and angle between the microphone and the sound
source. The angle and distance of the microphone can also
change the character of the recorded sound.
