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.

VCVA

the [
Rec Menu

On
] or [
Off
