Various ways of recording

VOR (Voice Operated
Recording)
VOR causes the recorder to automatically
record when there is sound, and to pause
when there is no sound. This allows you
to record without troublesome button
operations.

Notes
• You cannot record with the built-in
microphones while an optional microphone is
connected to the MIC (PLUG IN POWER)
jack or an optical cable (not supplied) is
connected to the LINE IN (OPTICAL) jack.
• VOR is sensitive to the surrounding sound
conditions. Set the MIC SENS switch to H or
L to suit the conditions. If you cannot get the
desired recording results, cancel VOR and
record in manual mode.
• Power from the batteries is consumed as long
as VOR is on, even when recording is not
taking place (i.e., when "VOR" and the VOR
indicator flash.)
