• the level of analog audio signal can be controlled using the Rec Level dial
• levels exceeding “OVER” on the display meter will cause distortion, however levels that are too low will not produce an optimal recording either
• levels should average -6 to -8 dB with highest levels never exceeding 0db
• short percussive sounds that occasionally hit OVER are generally not a problem but should be closely monitored.

3. Press PLAY to begin recording

• PAUSE will stop recording and return to record ready mode.
• PLAY will resume recording
• STOP will bring into stop mode and the display will read “PMA WRITING”

A new track will automatically be created when resuming recording after pausing or stopping—it is not possible to pause and continue recording without the creation of a new track number.
