High quality recording With the ease of use found in all WS series recorders, this model achieves a highly realistic stereo feeling thanks to the two low noise, high sensitivity microphones.

Automatic sensitivity adjustment with Intelligent Auto Mode The new Intelligent Auto Mode function automatically adjusts the microphone sensitivity according to the input level.

For example, when you record the voice of a person far away in a large meeting room, the input level tends to be lower.

In this case, the recorder automatically raises the sensitivity of the microphone making them easier to hear.

Alternatively, when you record in a smaller meeting room with only a few people, the sensitivityis automatically lowered, so that the voice of the speakers close by do not sound too loud.

In this way, the function automatically keeps track of the input level and simultaneously adjusts the recording level so that it alwaysrecords in the best quality.

This ensures that the recording remains consistent by not having a speaker's voice tooquiet or too loud. To set this function, simply select "Auto" as the recording level from the menu.
