Low-Cut Filter (Built-in Microphone or MIC Terminal)
You can activate the low cut filter to reduce the sound of blowing wind, a car’s engine and similar
ambient sounds. When recording in surroundings unaffected by wind or if you want to record low-
frequency sounds, we recommend turning off the low-cut filter.
