Recording A Meeting - Roland Edirol R-05 Owner's Manual

Recording a Meeting

• To ensure that the comments of all participants are
recorded consistently, place the R-05 in the center
of the table. Set the [MIC GAIN] switch to H if you're
recording sounds that are at a typical
conversational level.
• If you turn AGC on, the level will be automatically
adjusted according to the loudness of the speaker's
voice, ensuring that the recording will be consistent
even for people with a softer voice or who are at a
distance. However, turning on AGC (p. 48) will also
boost faint low-frequency background sounds such
as an operating air conditioner, capturing these
unwanted sounds as well. If so, turn [LOW CUT] on
to reduce the unwanted low-frequency noise while
capturing the voices more clearly.
• Since the purpose is to create a record of the
comments by each participant, the audio quality
of the recording is not of primary importance.
Choose MP3 as the recording mode to keep the
file size small even for an extended recording.
