PEAK REDUCTION
This function is used to automatically lower the 
recording level to a more appropriate one when an 
input sound is too loud. You can raise the recording 
level manually. This function is useful for recording 
music with volume changes that affect the sound 
negatively. Even if this function is turned off after it 
has been set, the set level is retained.
LIMITER
This function prevents distortion due to sudden and 
excessive input. This is useful when you do not want 
to change the recording level.
In this mode, you can change the recording level 
manually even during recording.

This recorder can record sounds in two modes: 4CH 

and MTR modes.
In the 4CH mode, up to four tracks can be recorded 

simultaneously from the built-in microphones and 

the external input terminal.
In the MTR mode, sounds can be recorded over an 

already recorded file in addition to recording of up 

to four tracks.

recording in the same file resumes.
When you press the 8/HOME button after 

pausing the recording, an audio file of the 

sound recorded up to pausing is created.

This unit has a recording standby state like that of a 

recorder for professional use. In this standby state,
