Example of display during USB recording
Play the source back and, while inputting the mic sound, adjust
the REC LEVEL knob so that the peak level meter never exceeds 0
continuously .

procedure .
o The volume may differ depending on the recording source . In
order to record different sources at appropriate volumes, you must
adjust the recording level for each source .
o The mic sound will be placed equally in both left and right chan-
nels so that it sounds centered .
o When recording with a mic, be careful to lower the volume
from speakers and keep the mic away from speakers to prevent
feedback .
o The mic sound cannot be recorded when recording from a CD to a
USB flash drive .
o Set the MIC LEVEL knob to MIN when not using a mic .
Feedback explanation
Feedback is when sound output from a speaker is picked up by a mic
and returned causing oscillation . This could cause very loud noise that
could even damage speakers .

o Echo is only applied to the mic input . It does not affect other ana-
log sound inputs .
o You can mix and output the mic sound with playback from any
input source (CD, USB, TAPE or LINE) .
Echo explanation
This adds reverberations to the original sound . The original sound is
repeated with various amounts of delay and damping over time to
produce an almost natural reverberation sound like in a hall or studio .
