Recording Audio Adjusting the Audio Recording Level When a channel is set to an analog audio input, you can select the automatic audio recording level adjustment or adjust the audio level manually, independently for each channel. When a channel is set to a digital audio source or the built-in monaural microphone, the audio recording level cannot be adjusted. Operating modes: 101 Automatic Audio Level Adjustment for CH1 or CH2 Set the audio level switch of the desired channel to A (automatic) to let the camera automatically adjust that channel's audio level. CH1/CH2 audio level switches Manual Audio Level Adjustment for CH1 or CH2 You can set the audio level for each channel manually from -∞ to +18 dB. 1 Set the audio level switch of the desired channel to M (manual). 2 Turn the corresponding audio level dial to adjust the audio level. • For reference, the 0 corresponds to -∞, 5 corresponds to 0 dB, and 10 corresponds to +18 dB. • As a guideline, adjust the audio recording level so that the audio level meter on the screen will go to the right of the -18 dB mark (one mark right of the -20 dB mark) only occasionally. • Closing the protective cover will prevent the audio controls from being changed inadvertently.
