pick-up patterns. Then adjust the
width of the stereo microphone pickup area.
Tip:
Consider the location of the microphone and the size of the sound source when adjusting the width. For example, a large orchestra or ensemble recording
will benefit from a wide stereo image to achieve increased separation between instruments. Other applications, such as speech, benefit from a narrow width
for improved clarity with rejection of ambient (room) sound.

as needed after changing presets.
Mode
Application
Characteristics
Speech
speech
Narrow stereo width to reject background noise, equalization that emphasizes clarity and
fullness, and gentle compression.
Singing
solo or group vocal
performances
Medium stereo width with subtle equalization to add richness and clarity for a natural
sound.

Medium stereo width with transparent compression to smooth out volume spikes and
bring out quiet passages. The equalizer setting emphasizes detail and an overall natural
sound.
Loud
live performance
and louder sources
Wide stereo to increase separation between sources. Equalization further improves defi
nition by reducing frequencies that can make the instrumentation sound crowded.
