PORTANT NOTES wer Supply: Use of Batteries Do not connect this unit to same electrical outlet that is being used by an electrical appliance that is controlled by an inverter (such as a refrigerator, washing machine, microwave oven, or air conditioner), or that contains a motor. Depending on the way in which the electrical appliance is used, power supply noise may cause this unit to malfunction or may produce audible noise. If it is not practical to use a separate electrical outlet, connect a power supply noise filter between this unit and the electrical outlet.

The AC adaptor will begin to generate heat after long hours of consecutive use. This is normal, and is not a cause for concern.

When installing or replacing batteries, always turn off the power on this unit and disconnect any other devices you may have connected. This way, you can prevent malfunction and/or damage to speakers or other devices.

Batteries are supplied with the unit. The life of these batteries may be limited, however, since their primary purpose was to enable testing.

355b

When moved from one location to another where the temperature and/or humidity is very different, water droplets (condensation) may form inside the unit. Damage or malfunction may result if you attempt to use the unit in this condition. Therefore, before using the unit, you must allow it to stand for several hours, until the condensation has completely evaporated.

360

Depending on the material and temperature of the surface on which you place the unit, its rubber feet may discolor or mar the surface. You can place a piece of felt or cloth under the rubber feet to prevent this from happening. If you do so, please make sure that the unit will not slip or move accidentally.

Maintenance 401a

For everyday cleaning wipe the unit with a soft, dry cloth or one that has been slightly dampened with water. To remove stubborn dirt, use a cloth impregnated with a mild, non-abrasive detergent. Afterwards, be sure to wipe the unit thoroughly with a soft, dry cloth.

402

Never use benzine, thinners, alcohol or solvents of any kind, to avoid the possibility of discoloration and/or deformation.

ote when using the R-05 on batteries

Do not mix fresh batteries with used batteries, and do not mix batteries of different types.

If you wont be using the R-05 for an extended period of time, we recommend that you remove the batteries to prevent them from leaking electrolyte.

If electrolyte should leak from the batteries, use a soft cloth to wipe the battery compartment clean, and then install new batteries. Electrolyte that contacts your skin might cause irritation. Electrolyte that enters your eyes is dangerous; if this occurs, immediately flush your eyes thoroughly with water.

Do not carry or store batteries together with metallic objects such as pens, necklaces, or hairpins.

R-05-e.book 55

In addition to recording instrumental performances or voice memos via a mic, the R-05 lets you use the LINE IN jack to record sound from a cassette or CD.

The mic input will automatically be turned off if you connect a device or cable to the LINE IN jack. If you input sound via the LINE IN jack as well as the MIC jack, only the sound from the line input will be recorded.

When connection cables with resistors are used, the volume level of equipment connected to the inputs (LINE IN) may be low. If this happens, use connection cables that do not contain resistors.

If you want to record from a connected record player, youll need to obtain a phono equalizer separately.

re well explain examples of Recorder Setup ttings that are appropriate for various recording uations.

Point the mic directly at the instrument youre recording so that the recording is not unbalanced toward the left or right channel. Placing the mic close to where the sound is being emitted will give you a brighter and clearer recording. Placing the mic at a distance will capture the sound of the room as well, giving you a more mellow recording. You can use a separately sold mic stand adaptor to attach the R-05 to a commercially available mic stand.

Point the mic directly at the center of the vocalists face so that the recording is not unbalanced toward the left or right channel. The vocalist should avoid moving their head to the left or right while singing.

If breath noise is a problem, aiming the mic slightly downward from the center will help. Use of the included windscreen may also prove effective.

If the tone is muffled, turning on LOW CUT (p. 49) will produce a crisper sound and will also reduce breath noise. Youll probably want to cut the sound below 100 Hz.

Record using WAV if youre going to create a CD or high-quality archival recording, or MP3 if the recording is just a song writing memo.

You can audition the recorded sound with reverb applied. Plate reverb is often used for vocals, but you can try various settings to your taste.

A bands performance is louder than everyday sounds. Set the [MIC GAIN] switch to L.

When you set the recording level, make adjustments during the loudest section of the song. You can use the rehearsal function to automatically set the appropriate recording level.

In a practice room, the instruments are typically placed around the edge of the room facing into the center. In order to record all instruments at a good balance, place the mic in the center of the room, at approximately table-top height to get the best sound. Placing the mic on the floor will produce a muffled sound with excessive low frequencies; placing the mic at a high location will fail to capture the lows, producing a thin sound.

If you turn the Auto Rec Start function on, you wont have to press [ ]; recording will start automatically when the band begins playing. Choose a setting of Level 1Level 3.

Set the [MIC GAIN] switch appropriately for the source youre recording. Choose the H setting if youre recording relatively soft sounds such as birds, insects, or a rustling stream. Choose the L setting if youre making a close-up recording of a loud source, such as a passing train or an airplane taking off or landing.

If wind noise is a problem, attach the included wind screen. Since wind noise is largely low- frequency components, turning [LOW CUT] on will also reduce it. However, this will cut the low- frequency portion, so its not suitable if you want to capture the powerful low-frequency sounds as well.

If youre not able to come close to the target youre recording, using an external mic can allow you to point the mic even where you cant reach. The separately sold stereo mic (CS-15) is designed to pick up only the sounds in the region toward which the mic is pointed, allowing you to capture just the desired sound.

If you turn Pre-Rec (p. 50) on, recording will start two seconds earlier than the moment you actually press [ ]. This means that you wont miss the beginning of that perfect sound.

To ensure that the comments of all participants are recorded consistently, place the R-05 in the center of the table. Set the [MIC GAIN] switch to H if youre recording sounds that are at a typical conversational level.

If you turn AGC on, the level will be automatically adjusted according to the loudness of the speakers voice, ensuring that the recording will be consistent even for people with a softer voice or who are at a distance. However, turning on AGC (p. 48) will also boost faint low-frequency background sounds such as an operating air conditioner, capturing these unwanted sounds as well. If so, turn [LOW CUT] on to reduce the unwanted low-frequency noise while capturing the voices more clearly.

Since the purpose is to create a record of the comments by each participant, the audio quality of the recording is not of primary importance. Choose MP3 as the recording mode to keep the file size small even for an extended recording.
