Sound-actuated recording
(Mic Synchronised recording)
About pause function
The unit automatically pauses when the microphone
does not pick up any sound for 3 seconds or more.
(Pause function does not work for approximately 10 sec-
onds after a recording starts.) When the microphone
picks up sound again, recording starts automatically.
Notes:
"
Whilst making a mic recording, do not connect any-
thing to the OPTICAL/LINE IN socket on the portable
MD.
"
To use a microphone, be sure it is a plug-in-power
type microphone.
"
Insert the plug firmly. If you don't, the recording will not
be made properly.
"
Use a microphone with a 3.5 mm (1/8") diameter ste-
reo mini plug.
"
If the unit starts recording too often from low unwanted
noises, set the microphone input to "MIC SYNC L".
"
Recording sensitivity can be changed whilst recording.
"
When using a microphone, do not bring too close
to the unit. Also do not use a plug-in type (without
lead). Noise pickup may occur.

by the microphone, recording will begin automatical-
ly.
- When a plug-in-power type microphone is plugged in,
the portable MD will provide power for the micro-
phone's operation.
- If a different type of microphone is plugged in, it may
not operate properly or it may cause the unit to mal-
function.
