TIP
• Sound quality increases as the
recording rate value increases.
• Setting a higher recording rate
increases file size. Check that you have
enough remaining memory before
recording.
• To record conferences and
presentations clearly, it is
recommended to set [Rec Mode]
setting to [MP3 128kbps] or above.
NOTE
• When [Rec Mode] is set to stereo,
recording with a connected mono
microphone records on the left channel
only.
