of the higher sensitivity.

Using the Variable Control Voice

Actuator (VCVA)

When the microphone senses that sounds have reached a preset volume, the built-

in Variable Control Voice Actuator (VCVA) starts recording automatically, and stops

it when the volume drops.

Particularly helpful for extended recording, the VCVA not only conserves memory

by turning off recording during silent periods, but also makes playback more efficient

and convenient.

1 Press and hold the MENU/FOLDER button for

1 second or longer.

The menu opens.

2 Press the 9/+ or 0/– button until “VCVA” flashes

on the display.

3 Press the PLAY button.

4 Press the 9/+ or 0/– button to select between

“On” and “OFF.”

On: The VCVA is activated.

OFF: The VCVA is canceled.

5 Press the STOP button to close the menu.

6 Press the REC button to start recording.

Notes

• When the VCVA senses sound louder than its start/stop actuation level setting, recording

starts automatically. When it senses silence for 1 second or longer, recording pauses

automatically, and the recorder enters Standby mode.

• The Recording/playing lamp is lit during recording. When the recorder is in Standby mode, the

Recording/playing lamp flashes and "VCVA" flashes on the display.
