Recording mode overview

The has four recording modes that can be selected according to your
purposes.
Mid-side (MS) stereo mode
This mode uses a mid mic to capture the sound
directly ahead and a bidirectional side mic to
capture sound from left and right.
The recording level of the side mic (S level) can
be adjusted, allowing the stereo width to be
changed. If you record with the S level set to
MS-RAW, you can also adjust the S level after
recording.
MS mics can capture a rich stereo image, so it is ideal for recording sounds in
wide and open conditions, including orchestras, live concerts and soundscapes.
XY stereo mode
This mode records in stereo with mics at 90º angles.
This allows a natural, deep and accurate sound image
to be captured, making it optimal for recording
sources nearby, including solo performances,
chamber music, interviews, live rehearsals and field
recordings.
