connecting the external audio equipment.

function being on: When a cable is connected to
the AUDIO IN CH-1 or CH-2 connector, the
input from that connector is automatically
selected for audio recording, regardless of the
setting of the AUDIO IN CH1 or CH2 switch.
The XLR connection automatic detection
function can be switched on or off by
