Various Ways of Recording
Starting recording automatically in response to the sound � Advanced VOR function
When the VOR (voice operated recording) function is set to ON (page 36), recording starts when the recorder detects sound and stops when no sound is heard. Note
VOR function is affected by the sound around you. Set the microphone sensitivity (SENS) to either HI (high) or LO (low) (see page 36). If recording is not satisfactory after you have changed the microphone sensitivity, or for important recording, set VOR to OFF.
