6.  In order to use the built-in mic to record singing 
to track 3, use the DATA wheel to set the INPUT 
B input source to 
Internal MIC/Low
 or 
Internal MIC/High
 
This sets the built-in mic on the right side of the 
front panel (MIC B) as the input source for INPUT 
B.
NOTE
Internal MIC/Low
 and 
Internal MIC/High
 
change the input gain of the built-in mics. Set it 
according to the loudness of the input. 
If you are not sure which setting to use, choose 
Internal MIC/Low
. If the input level is too low 
after adjusting it, return to the 
INPUT SETTING
 
screen and change the setting to 
Internal 
MIC/High
 .
7.  After changing the setting, press the HOME 
button to return to the Home Screen.
Setting the guitar as the TRACK 1 
recording source 
When the recorder is stopped, press the ASSIGN 
button to open the 
INPUT ASSIGN
 screen, which 
has the following default values.
Recording track
Recording 
source
Default 
TRACK 1, 3, 5, 7
INPUT A
A
TRACK 2, 4, 6, 8
INPUT B
B
In “Connecting and setting the input sources” above, 
we made a guitar the input source for INPUT A and a 
built-in mic (MIC B) the input source for INPUT B on 
the 
INPUT SETTING
 screen.
Therefore, the guitar is already set to record to tracks 
1, 3, 5 and 7 and the built-in mic (MIC B) is ready to 
record to tracks 2, 4, 6 and 8.
As a result, there is no need to change the input 
source assignments to record the guitar to TRACK 1 
in this example.
