( P. 52) Microphone recommendations Professional condenser microphone(s) (which require additional power from either the PMD620's phantom power or from another source) are recommended because they provide greater sensitivity and higher quality audio recording. Dynamic microphone(s) can be used, but they do not yield optimum audio quality recordings in some applications. Consult with your local dealer to select the appropriate microphone(s) for your specific application. In many cases, they can demonstrate the various performances and characteristics of microphones for your use. 32 Low Cut Filter The bass region of the input audio is cut as the audio is recorded. Set to On to reduce noise, such as the sound of the wind when recording outdoors. ( P. 52) Auto Track With the Auto Track (Automatic Track incrementing) On, a new audio file is begun automatically at specified intervals of recording time. The Auto Track can be set to increment every 1, 5, 10, 15 or 30 minutes, or every 1, 2, 6, 8, 12 or 24 hours. The Auto Track makes finding a particular point in a recording easier. For example, if a new audio file begins every minute during playback, the Auto Track makes finding a particular passage easier because of the relationship between file numbers and time. During playback, you can select file number 3 to play approximately the 3rd minute of recording.
