Using Convenient Functions while Recording
Monitoring the recording
When recording from the built-in microphone, you connect headphones
supplied or not supplied to the i (headphones) jack and monitor the
recording from the connected headphones. You can adjust the volume
with VOL +/–, but the recording level is fixed.
Note
If you turn up the volume excessively or place the headphones near the
microphone while monitoring recording, the microphone may pick up the
sound from the headphones, causing acoustic feedback (howling sound).
Starting recording automatically in response to the sound
— Advanced VOR function
You can set the VOR (voice operated recording) function in the menu.
With VOR set to “on”, recording starts when the recorder detects sound,
and “VOR” appears in the display window. The recording pauses when
no sound is detected, and “VOR PAUSE” appears. You can change the
VOR setting with the menu during recording (page 53).
Note
VOR function is affected by the sound around you. Set the SENS (page 53)
according to the recording conditions. If recording is not satisfactory after you
have changed the microphone sensitivity, or for important recording, set the
VOR to “OFF”.
