Q: Are there any tips to making a good recording?

A: Try a test recording to set the optimum recording mode and sensitivity, since the recording condition varies with the location and circumstances.

Q: I cannot play a recorded file that was stored on the computer and transferred back to the unit.

A: You may have changed the file name on the computer. If you change the file name, the file will not play, even if it is transferred back into the MIC(A–D) or LINE folder. However, you will be able to play the file if you transfer it into the MUSIC folder.
