2.  Use the Pointing Stick to select INPUT, and press the center to button to 

open the Input Setting screen.

This screen contains the following setting items.
Use the Pointing Stick to set each item.

Set the microphone input sensitivity. When the input level is low, set to 

MID or HIGH.

Options: LOW (default), MID, HIGH

When recording through the built-in microphone, you can use one of 

two level control functions. 

Options: OFF (default), AUTO, LIMITER

When set to AUTO (automatic gain control mode), the unit’s input gain 

changes automatically in response to the input level, so loud sounds are 

made quieter and soft sounds are made louder, making the recording 

level as even as possible. This is useful for recording meetings, for 

example.

When AUTO mode is active, the recording level cannot be adjusted 

manually.

When set to LIMITER (limiter mode) the unit’s input gain is lowered 

automatically to prevent loud sounds from distorting. This is useful for 

recording live performances and other situations when volume changes 

are extreme. 

When LIMITER mode is active, the recording level can still be adjusted 

manually.

Set the low cut filter cutoff frequency for microphone input to avoid 

recording sounds such as air conditioner rumble, etc. 

Options: OFF (default), 40Hz, 80Hz, 120Hz

Set whether the input source is a microphone (MIC) or line level signal 

(LINE). The default setting is MIC. 

Regardless of the setting, the built-in microphone automatically 

becomes the input source when nothing is connected to the MIC/LINE 

IN stereo mini jack.

Set this to MIC to use an external microphone connected to the MIC/

LINE IN stereo mini jack. 

Set this to LINE to use a line level external device connected to the MIC/

LINE IN stereo mini jack.

When set to LINE, the PLUG IN POWER item will automatically be 

disregarded.
