Remedy
• An object, such as your finger, etc., accidentally rubbed or
scratched the IC recorder during recording so that noise was
recorded.
• The IC recorder was placed near an AC power source, a
fluorescent lamp or a mobile phone during recording or playback.
• The plug of the connected microphone is dirty. Clean the plug.
• The plug of the connected headphones is dirty. Clean the plug.
• Noise may be heard during recording pause of an MP3 file, VOR
recording, or synchronized recording.
• Noise canceling function is set in a quiet place (for ICD-SX813
only). Noise tends to be more noticeable in a quiet place or
depending on the noise type. Release noise canceling function
(page 73). Furthermore, the supplied stereo headphones for noise
canceling are designed for fairly high sensitivity to maximize the
effectiveness of noise canceling in noisy places, such as outside or
in a train. For this, you may hear white noise in a quiet place even
if you release noise canceling.
