Application guide
Here are basic settings for recording birdsongs or similar sounds outdoors. Since you’ll need to run on
batteries outdoors, the settings take power conservation into account.

By lowering the sampling frequency (Rec Freq.) and
limiting the number of tracks, you can minimize the
size of the file to be written. This will decrease the
amount of access to the hard disk, thereby conserving
power.
Rec Freq.
44.1 kHz
Rec Bit
16 bit
Rec Mode
STEREOx1,
MONOx1
Set to match the mics that are connected.
Pre Recording
4 sec
The pre-recording setting lets you press the record
button when you hear birdsong; sounds that oc-
curred several seconds earlier will be captured retro-
actively. If you’re trying to capture birdsong, a
setting of four seconds will be sufficient. In compari-
son to allowing recording to continue, this method
will minimize the number of accesses to the internal
hard disk.
However, with any pre-recording setting other than
OFF, recording will always be occurring internally.

Using the Date setting will make it easy to tell the
date and time that the recording was made.
