Connecting the External Mics for Recording

fig.extmic.eps
Here's how to record using the connected dynamic mics or
stereo mic.
* Dynamic mics are highly durable, and are suitable for recording
instruments or vocals. They also have the advantage of not
requiring a power supply.
* This device also supports condenser mics that require a power
supply, as well as plug-in power mic. Connect the condenser mics
to the XLR type EXT MIC (L, R) jacks, and connect a plug-in power
mic to the PLUG IN POWER MIC jack.
* If you encounter a problem with noise or distortion, see "The recorded sound is noisy or
distorted" (Page 127).
