NOTES
When the audio level meter reaches the red point (0 dB mark), the
sound may be distorted.
If the audio level is too high and the sound gets distorted, activate the
microphone attenuator ( 139).
We recommend using headphones ( 79) to check the sound level
while adjusting the audio recording level or when the microphone atten-
uator is activated.
Using Headphones
Use headphones for playback or to check the audio level while record-
ing. The headphones are connected to the AV OUT/ terminal, which
is used for both the headphones and the audio/video output. Before
connecting the headphones, follow the procedure below to change the
function of the terminal from AV output to (headphones) output.
* Headphones can be used also in mode but the function of the terminal can-
not be changed. Change the setting in advance in mode or mode.
