Record Lock
The FlashMic is equipped with a REC LOCK function to prevent the accidental cancelling of
REC mode during a recording.
Once in REC mode, press the REC button a second time, holding it down for at least 2
seconds, until the LCD screen displays the text LOCKED.
Pressing the M/STOP button will now have no effect (other than to display the text
LOCKED).
To disable REC LOCK mode, press and hold the REC button until the LOCKED display changes
to UNLOCK.
Now the recording can be stopped in the normal manner by pressing M/STOP.

Monitoring
A pair of headphones may be connected to the FlashMic for monitoring purposes.
Headphones of 32 ohms impedance or higher should be used. Connect the headphones via
the 3.5mm 3-pole jack marked PHONES on the FlashMic bottom panel. The mono signal
from the FlashMic will be heard in both earpieces. Headphone monitoring of live audio is
active in both IDLE and REC modes.
The monitor output may be used to drive external equipment for monitoring or recording
if desired.
The monitor level is adjusted with the jogswitch; a SHORT PRESS shows the text PHONnn on
the LCD display, where nn = the current level. (The units are arbitrary; 00 = off, 50 = max.)
A SHORT UP TURN or DOWN TURN will respectively increase or decrease the monitor
level. Note that the monitor level always resets to a factory preset level when the FlashMic
is switched on. The level can be adjusted during REC, PLAY or IDLE modes.
The LCD display will return automatically to the REC or IDLE displays after a timeout period
of approx. 2 seconds.
Adjusting Record Level
Adjustment of Record level is only possible if the FlashMic has been set (via the FlashMic
Manager software) to permit configuration changes by the user. See the section on FlashMic
Manager for more information.
The recording level is adjusted with the jogswitch. A SHORT UP TURN or DOWN TURN
while in REC mode displays the text RVOLnn, where nn = the current level. (Unlike monitor
level, the units are not arbitrary, being increments of approximately 1dB; 01 = min, 40 =
max.) Further SHORT UP or DOWN TURNS will nudge the record level up or down.
When the record level is reduced to minimum, the AGC system is selected and the display
shows RV AGC. In this mode, FlashMic automatically adjusts recording level according to the
sound level. In most situations, this ensures that a recording of usable level will be made,
but as with all automatic gain systems, a degree of background noise “pumping” may be
audible on the recording.
It is also possible to adjust the FlashMic’s recording level from IDLE mode, using the menu
system. See FlashMic Menu System, page 16.
Note that the record level always resets to the last value used when the FlashMic is
switched on, and not to the value set as part of the preset by FlashMic Manager. (See
section on FlashMic Manager for more information on presets.)
