Matching
the Recording Levels
Before recording the band performance, consider
the song structure and nd the place in the song
where the volume is the loudest. Adjust so that the
R-44 level meter goes as high as possible but falls
just short of the C (clip level) at maximum volume.
Volume is too loud if the
C (Clip Level) lights up
Sensitivity is too high if the
channel name lights up
If the recording level is too low, the entire
recording is done at the low volume. If it is too high,
the recording can be distorted (popping noise or if
even higher, the sound can be severely distorted).
For details on setting the input level, refer to the
owner’s manual.

Positioning the R-44
When rehearsing in a rehearsal studio, the
instruments are often located throughout the room.
You should position the R-44 in the middle of the
studio to record the sound of each instrument
equally. You should also place the microphone at
about table-height. If the microphone is placed on
the oor, the sound is mu ed and unclear; if it is
placed too high, you lose the bass range and the
sound becomes tinny.
