This unit can record sound from external microphones and external
audio devices, including CD players.
The unit can be set to record audio files in WAV or BWF

Marks added when recording to Broadcast Wave Format (BWF) can

This recorder has five recording modes, including dual recording,
which allows the same input signals to be recorded at two different
levels, and 4-channel recording.
