Monitoring the new recorded sound

To play back the sound

Adjust the balance between the original sound (ST1) and the new sound (ST2) by
selecting AUDIO MIX in the menu settings (p. 89).
About five minutes after when you disconnect the power source or remove the battery
pack, the setting of AUDIO MIX returns to the original sound (ST1) only. The default
setting is original sound only.
