9. Silent Skip
Silent Skip automatically pauses recording when there is a period
of silence and resumes recording when sound resumes.
This feature is often referred to as voice activated recording.
Silent Skip looks for sound below a preset level for three
seconds time.
When that occurs, the PMD560 switches to record pause.
When a signal above the preset level is input, recording
resumes.
The Silent Skip Menu setting permits :
• Turning Silent Skip On or Off.
• Adjusting the margin of sound level that defines silence in
-60dB, -54dB, -38dB or -20dB.
When the Auto Mark menu choice is at On, resumption of
recording after a record pause by Silent Skip adds an EDL
mark.
