Microphone Sensitivity/Recording Modes
Microphone
Sensitivity
Microphone sensitivity is adjustable to meet
recording needs.
Using the MICSENS switch, choose between
the CONF and DICT positions.
CONF : High-sensitivity mode that records
sounds in all directions.
DICT : Low-sensitivity mode suited for
dictation.
Notes
• An optional ME7 conference microphone is
recommended for recording conferences in CONF
mode if people speaking are located far away from
the recorder.
• Choose DICT mode if you want to use voice-
recognition software, such as ViaVoice from IBM.
Recording Modes
You can choose between two recording modes:
SP (Standard Playback) mode and LP (Long
Playback) mode. Choose one of the modes
before you perform recording. Once you choose
