MEMO
When AUDIO LIMITER in the AUDIO/MIC[1/2] menu
screen is set to ON, the AUDIO LIMITER functions in
manual adjust mode. Recording level is suppressed
when excessive audio is input.
X See “AUDIO LIMITER” on page 87.
The reference level for audio recorded on the tape can
be set with the AUDIO REF. LEVEL item on the AUDIO/
MIC menu screen. (–20 dB or –12 dB) The level will
change for both CH-1 and CH-2.
CAUTION
When the AUDIO INPUT switch is set to MIC, be sure to
check that the microphone is connected to the INPUT1/2
connector. If the microphone is not connected, increasing the
audio level could cause noise from the input connector to be
recorded on the tape. When the microphone is not con-
nected to the INPUT1/2 connector, set the AUDIO INPUT
switch to “LINE” or turn down the audio level control.
In the FULL AUTO mode, the audio level volume cannot
be adjusted with the audio level controls on the CH-1 and
CH-2.
Monitoring Audio during Recording
The audio input during recording, in record-pause or stop
mode can be monitored through the monitoring speaker or
earphone.
Select the audio channel to be monitored using the MONI-
TOR SELECT switch.
The MONITOR volume control adjusts the monitoring vol-
ume.
The loudspeaker or earphone outputs an alarm tone in the
case of an abnormal condition occurring in this device.

* Do not increase the audio monitoring volume exces-
sively; otherwise howling with the camera microphone
may occur.
