Description of menu items

You can select one of the following items:

OFF:
Available for the situation where no recording scene selection is required.
Pocket (default setting):
Suitable for recording when your IC recorder is in a clothes pocket.
Auto Voice Rec:

You can reduce noise (vibrations from the desk, etc.) by placing the IC recorder on a cloth, such as a handkerchief. Record somewhere close to the people speaking in the meeting.
Lecture:
Suitable for recording seminars and lectures. Point the microphone in the direction of the sound source.
Voice Notes:
Suitable for speaking into the built-in microphones to record voice notes. On the recording screen, (Voice Notes) appears.
