Using the Variable Control Voice Actuator [VCVA]
The Variable Control Voice Actuator (VCVA) is a function that starts recording automatically when the microphone senses that sounds have reached a preset threshold volume level, and automatically pauses when the volume drops below the threshold. The VCVA feature allows you to conserve memory by automatically stopping recording in instances like long silent periods during meetings. When this is enabled, [ VCVA ] will appear on the display.
2 Press the REC button to start recording.
· When the sound volume is lower than the preset actuation sound level, recording automatically stops after 1 second approximately, and "Stand by" flashes on the display. The record indicator light glows orange and [ ] (Record indicator) appears when recording starts and flashes when recording pauses.
