the [LINE] knob all the way to the left (off).
While producing the sound that you will actually be recording, turn the [MIC] knob to adjust 
the input level.
Adjust the level so that the peak indicator located above the [MIC] knob lights briefly at the 
loudest moments of the performance or vocal you’ll be recording.

* If sound from the speakers enters the mic, you won’t be able to adjust the level correctly. While 
adjusting the level, either turn the [VOLUME] knob all the way down or set the [SPEAKER] switch 
located on the side of the CD-2e to its “OFF” position, so no sound will be produced. Use 
headphones if you want to monitor the sound that’s being recorded.

If the sound from the microphone distorted even though you’ve turned the [MIC] knob down, 
you can decrease the external mic sensitivity. At the factory settings, the external mic 
sensitivity is set to “High.” If the level meter does not move sufficiently, change this setting to 
“Low.” For details, refer to the text box “Selecting the external mic sensitivity” on Page 41.
