Recording from a microphone
See the illustration in Japanese text (page 31).

ECM-MS907, ECM-MS957, etc., not
supplied) to the MIC (PLUG IN
POWER) jack.

To select microphone sensitivity

stopped, turn the dial repeatedly until

Notes
• You cannot record through the microphone
while an optical cable is connected to the
LINE IN (OPT) jack. In this case, disconnect
the optical cable from the LINE IN (OPT)
jack. The recorder automatically switches
input in the following order; optical input,
microphone input, and analog input.
• Do not use a microphone with a short
connecter connected directly to the recorder,
as this may cause the operation sound of the
recorder to be picked up.
