Troubleshooting

Sound is not output or the volume is very low
→ Check the headphone and LINE OUT connec-
tions.
→ Confirm that the headphone volume and line
output level are not too low.

settings of the connected equipment.

to adjust the volume.
"MIC INPUT OVERLOAD!" or "INPUT 1 (2)
OVERLOAD!" appears
→ The input sound is too loud. Increase the dis-
tance between the mic and the sound source.
→ Wind can also cause loud noises to be input. We
recommend using the Lo Cut setting to reduce
noise if air is blown directly at a mic, for example,
when recording outdoors or when a mic is near
the mouth of a speaker.
