Using the Settings Menu
Setting/Viewing Audio (Recording) Quality
Use the Audio (Recording) quality setting to change the compression rate of the recorded AAC audio:
the higher the audio quality, the lower the compression rate. As a result, files recorded with the highest
audio quality setting will be larger files that require more storage space.
•
Use High to record at the highest audio quality. This setting will require the largest amount of
storage space and is optimal for very large environments or when the highest quality recording is
required.
•
Use Medium to return to the default recommended audio quality setting.
•
Use Low to record at lowest audio quality. This is a memory-saving setting that will utilize the least
amount of memory and is optimal for dictations or smaller quieter recording environments.

You cannot change these settings during recording. Always select the appropriate audio quality
setting before beginning a recording.
Setting/Viewing Microphone Sensitivity
You can set your smartpen microphone sensitivity for different recording situations.
•
Use Conference Room to set the microphone sensitivity for quieter environments where the person
speaking is closer to the microphone. This setting is optimal for dictations, offices, or small
conference rooms.
•
Use Lecture Hall to set the microphone to pick up sounds in a wider open area. This setting is
optimal for large rooms where the speaker’s voice is distant from your smartpen microphone. We
also recommend the use of the 3-D Recording Headset when recording in this type of environment.
•
Use Automatic to let your smartpen automatically set your microphone sensitivity based on the
noise level of your environment. This is the recommended default setting for the Livescribe
smartpen.
