Notes • "LP:" will be added at the beginning of the track name of a track recorded in MDLP mode. • It is recommended that you use the supplied AC power adaptor for long recordings. • During monaural recording of a stereo sound source connected through the digital (optical) input jack, you can still monitor the recorded sound in stereo by using headphones or earphones connected to the i/LINE OUT jack. • When you record in LP4 mode, momentary noise may be produced on very rare occasions with certain sound sources. This is because of the special digital audio compression technology that enables a recording time 4 times longer than normal. If noise is produced, it is recommended that you record in normal stereo or LP2 mode to obtain better sound quality. VOR (Voice Operated Recording) VOR causes the recorder to automatically record when there is sound, and to pause when there is no sound. This allows you to record without troublesome button operations.
