Using the AGC/compressor/
 
limiter function
 
When recording the live performance of a
band or a similar event where volume levels
are hard to predict, the AGC/compressor/
limiter function will come in handy to
optimize the recording level.
AGC (Auto Gain Control) is a function that
a u t o m a t i c a l l y   a d j u s t s   t h e   l e v e l   d u r i n g
recording. Low-level signals will be boosted
and high-level signals will be attenuated,
resulting in a recording that has low noise and
distortion.
 
NOTE
 
When the AGC function is active, the [MIC 
GAIN] switch setting has no effect.
 
The compressor boosts low-level signals and
attenuates high-level signals. In this regard, it
is similar to AGC, but it more actively shapes
the dynamics of the input signal.
The limiter serves to prevent distortion during
recording by attenuating only signals that
exceed a certain level.
