INPUT Selection
The PMD690 can record from a variety of inputs:
• XLR micorphone connection (L/R, L)
• Internal microphone
• Line level source (L/R, L)
• XLR micorphone connection (L/R, L)
• Internal microphone
• Line level source (L/R, L)
The INPUT switch offers selection of microphone (MIC) or
line level (LINE) input.
line level (LINE) input.
Notes
• The MIC switch above the INPUT switch is only active when
• The MIC switch above the INPUT switch is only active when
the INPUT switch is set to the middle (MIC) position.
• When REC MODE is STEREO (SP or LP) and INPUT is LINE,
the input is stereo (L and R of the line inputs).
• When REC MODE is MONO and INPUT is LINE, the input is L
channel of the line inputs.
MIC ATTEN (Attenuation)
The MIC ATTEN switch adjusts the base input level for
MIC L/R and MIC L inputs only.
MIC L/R and MIC L inputs only.
Adjusting the microphone attenuation allows
microphones with higher sensitivity to be recorded and
controlled the same way as microphones with lower
sensitivity.

controlled the same way as microphones with lower

ANC (Ambient Noise Cancel)
The ANC (Ambient Noise Cancel) switch is only
applicable to microphone inputs but does not affect the
line input.

This ANC feature allows the recorder to filter out

REC LEVEL Control
The PMD690 offers three ways to control the recording
level: manual (MANUAL), manual with a limiter
(LIMITER), and automatic (ALC).
• MANUAL: The recording level is controlled by the REC
level: manual (MANUAL), manual with a limiter
(LIMITER), and automatic (ALC).
• MANUAL: The recording level is controlled by the REC
LEVEL knob.
• LIMITER: The recording level is controlled by the REC
LEVEL knob but a limiting circuit in the PMD690 will
not allow the input signal to overload (go past the -9dB
mark on the level meter). The recover time is short so
that the set record level is maintained as much as
possible.
The REC LED will dim when the Limiter is heavily
limiting the input signal.

The REC LED will dim when the Limiter is heavily

• ALC (Automatic record Level Control): The recording
level in this mode is controlled exclusively by the
PMD690 and the REC LEVEL knob is disabled. The
recover time of the system is long so that the recording
level does not constantly fluctuate.

Setting the Record Level
• The optimum recording level is where the peak of the
input sound just barely flickers past the -12dB point
(highlighted in black in the display).
(highlighted in black in the display).
• The recording level should never reach the overload
point in the level meter (OVER symbol highlighted in
black). Reaching that point will result in digital noise
which is very uncomfortable for the ear.
