< Once all of the above parameters are set, press the [MENU] button. This will exit the Record Settings menu and return
you to the Main menu. Press the [MENU] button once more to leave the Main menu and display the main screen of
the MicroTrack 24/96.
SETTING YOUR INPUT LEVEL
< Set the [L/M/H] switch to M.
< Press the [REC] button. The volume meters on the main screen will show the input level being received through the
stereo “T” microphone. Try speaking and you should see the volume meters rise as you talk. If the meters are not
moving, double-check that the MicroTrack 24/96 is set as described above.
< You now need to set the record level. You will probably see that while talking in a normal speaking voice, the input
level meters do not reach their maximum level. This means that the record level should be increased. If, on the
other hand, you find that it’s easy to make the meters reach full level, you will need to decrease the record level to
avoid distorting your recording. Use the [LEVEL] buttons to increase or decrease the recording level of the left and
right channels such that the meters almost reach their full level without going over. Additionally, you may move the
L/M/H switch to the “L” position to lower the recording level even further and allow for a maximum sensitivity range.
If the recording level is too high, the red LEDs above the [LEVEL] buttons will blink, indicating that the recording will be
distorted, or clipped.
< Once you have set your record level, press the [REC] button again. While setting your levels, the MicroTrack 24/96 was
actually already recording to a file. Pressing [REC] for the second time will end the recording process. Press the [DEL]
button and confirm by pressing the same button a second time to delete the small file you just recorded.
Note: Press [Rec] and push in on the [NAV] wheel immediately after to enter Record-Pause mode. This will allow you to set
your levels without actively recording while doing so.
MAKING A RECORDING
< Press the [REC] button, and the MicroTrack 24/96 will immediately begin recording a new audio file.
< Speak into the microphone and record your voice for about 20 seconds. The MicroTrack 24/96 will show the length
of the current recording and the remaining recording time in the lower-right corner of the screen (separated by “/”).
< When you want to stop recording, press the [REC] button again.
< When the recording has stopped, the MicroTrack 24/96 will finish writing data to the CompactFlash card and will then
set the file to standby, making it ready for playback.
