3 Set the corresponding AUDIO IN
switch (CH-1 or CH-2) to EXT.
4 Set the corresponding LINE/MIC/+48V
switch (CH-1 or CH-2) according to the
connected microphone.
MIC: For a microphone that requires no
power supply
+48V: For a microphone that requires +48V
power supply (such as the ECM-673)
You can select automatic or manual adjustment
mode independently for each channel.
To adjust the levels automatically (AGC)
When the AUDIO SELECT switches CH-1 and
CH-2 are set to AUTO, the audio recording levels
are automatically adjusted.
To adjust the levels manually
Set the AUDIO SELECT switches CH-1 and CH-
2 to MANUAL, and adjust the audio recording
levels by turning the AUDIO LEVEL controls.
The value is set to 0 dB when the control is set to
5. Setting to 10 maximizes the level (+12 dB) and
setting to 0 minimizes it (–
∞).
The input levels are displayed on the screen when
you press the DISPLAY/BATT INFO button.
Audio recording in special recording
modes
• No audio recording is made in Interval
Recording or Frame Recording.
• No audio recording is made in Slow & Quick
recording if the recording frame rate is set to a
value different from the playback frame rate.
You can monitor the sounds being recorded with
the headphones connected to the headphone
connector (stereo mini jack).
Note
The built-in speaker is disabled in Camera mode.
To adjust the audio monitoring volume
Use the MONITOR VOL buttons.
Pressing the + button increases the volume, and
pressing the – button decreases it. To muffle the
sound, set it to the minimum level.
While you adjust the volume, the level is
displayed as a bar on the screen.
