CAUTION
•
Distortion might occur if the input sound is too loud even when
the limiter is on. In such a case, lower the input level or increase
the distance between the unit and the sound source.
•
During mic input, this lights if distortion occurs in the analog
circuitry. During line level input, this does not light even if
distortion occurs in the analog circuitry.
NOTE
•
The
icon appears on the recording screen when the limiter
is on for any channel (when set to
MONO
or
LINK
).
•
The limiter function can be set and changed even during
recording standby and when recording.
•
When you change the 1Ch (2Ch) limiter setting from
MONO
to
LINK
the setting of the other channel will be changed to match,
so a confirmation pop-up message appears.
