Using The Variable Control Voice Actuator (VCVA)
When the microphone senses that sounds have reached a preset threshold
volume level, the built-in Variable Control Voice Actuator (VCVA) starts
recording automatically, and stops when the volume drops below the
threshold level.The VCVA feature extends recording time and conserves
memory by stopping recording during silent periods, which helps the playback
to be more efficient.
