[Setting Values: -12dB, -18dB, -20dB]
Limiter
For setting the limiter operation.
Ref. Level:
Sets “Ref. Level” to the maximum recording level.
-8dBFS, -5dBFS:
Sets “-8dBFS” or “-5dBFS” to the maximum recording level.
Off:
Depending on the settings of the [CH1/CH2 AUTO/MANUAL] selection switches, the operation may be different as described below.
The limiter does not function when “MANUAL” is set.
The limiter functions at -5 dBFS when “AUTO” is set.
[Setting Values: Ref. Level, -8dBFS, -5dBFS, Off]
AGC Response
Attack Time
Sets the time to activate the limiter.
[Setting Values: Fast, Middle, Slow]
Decay Time
Sets the time to deactivate the limiter operation.
[Setting Values: Fast, Middle, Slow]
AGC Mode
For setting whether to link the limiter operation of [CH1] and [CH2].
Select “Link” to link or “Separate” to separate.
[Setting Values: Link, Separate]
Enabled only when both the [AUX] input terminal and [INPUT1/INPUT2] input terminal are set to “LINE” or “MIC”, and CH1/CH2 of the [CH1/CH2 AUTO/MANUAL] switch is set to “AUTO”.
XLR Manual Level
For setting whether to link manual audio adjustment operation between [INPUT1] and [INPUT2] terminals.
Select “Link” to link or “Separate” to separate.
When this item is set to “Link”, adjust the recording level using the [CH1] recording level adjustment knob.
[Setting Values: Link, Separate]
Enabled only when both the [INPUT1/INPUT2] input terminals are set to “LINE” or “MIC”, and both [CH1]/[CH2] of the [CH1/CH2 AUTO/MANUAL] selection switches are set to “MANUAL”.
When this item is set to “Link”, [CH2] recording level adjustment knob is disabled.
Int. Mic Separation
For setting the enhancement level of the stereo effect of the built-in microphone.
1 to 4:
Enhances the stereo effect. Increasing the value increases the stereo effect.
Effect off:
Does not enhance the stereo effect.
Mono:
Sets the built-in microphone to monaural.
[Setting Values: 1 to 4, Effect off, Mono ( 2)]
When any value from 1 to 4 is selected, the sound quality changes slightly due to the process of enhancing the stereo effect. This is normal.
This menu is enabled when the [CH1]/[CH2] selection switch is set to “INT”.
Test Tone
For specifying whether to output the audio test signals (1 kHz) during color bar output.
[Setting Values: On, Off]
INPUT1/2 Wind Cut
For selecting whether to cut the low frequencies of the audio input signals (low-cut) when the [INPUT1/INPUT2] switch is set to “MIC” or “MIC+48V”.
Set this item to reduce wind noise from the microphone.
Both:
Enables low-cut on both the [INPUT1] and [INPUT2] terminals.
INPUT2:
Enables low-cut on the audio of the [INPUT2] terminal only.
INPUT1:
Enables low-cut on the audio of the [INPUT1] terminal only.
Off:
Disables low-cut.
[Setting Values: Both, INPUT2, INPUT1, Off]
Int. Mic Wind Cut
For selecting whether to cut the low frequencies of the audio input signals (low-cut) from the built-in microphone. Set this item to “On” to reduce wind noise from the microphone.
[Setting Values: On, Off]
Equalizer
You can correct the characteristic and enhance the sound of the connected microphone using this equalizer setting.
For setting the audio frequency from a 5-band equalizer.
Frequency:
100Hz, 330Hz, 1kHz, 3.3kHz, 10kHz
Variable level:
± 6dB (1dB step)
Audio will be recorded in the characteristic set in the equalizer.
Set all bands to “0dB” to bypass the equalizer.
When the equalizer level is set to the + side, the audio may be distorted. In this case, reduce the recording level in Manual mode.
If the values of multiple frequencies are changed, the specified levels and the actual levels may be different due to interference between the frequency bands.
This function is enabled only when both [INPUT1/2 Wind Cut] and [Int. Mic Wind Cut] are set to “Off”.
Monitor
For setting the audio sound of the [ ] terminal to stereo or mixed sound when the [MONITOR] selection switch on the LCD monitor is set to “BOTH”.
Mix:
Outputs mixed sound (mixed sound of CH1 and CH2) to both L and R.
Stereo:
Outputs stereo sound (outputs audio sound of CH1 to L, and CH2 to R).
[Setting Values: Mix, Stereo]
If both CH1 and CH2 are built-in microphones, stereo sound is output from the [ ] terminal regardless of the [Monitor] setting.
Alarm Level
For selecting whether to turn on the warning tone as well as setting the volume.
The warning tone is output from the monitor speaker or [ ] terminal.
[Setting Values: High, Middle, Low, Off]
Audio On FULL AUTO
