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
If you want to clearly record dictation, switch to DICT mode
and place the internal microphone close (5 to 10 cm) to the
speaker.
If the ambient (background) noise is too loud to get a clear
recording even in DICT mode, we recommend that you use
an ME-12 single directional microphone (sold separately).
