The “TRIGGER LEVEL ” sub-menu permits to adjust the level detection to start the recording and can
be set in steps of 10 dB from 50 dB SPL to 120 dB SPL.
The “ TRIGGER DELAY” menu permits to adjust the continuous duration or length of the sound level
before the recording starts. It can be set from 0.0 seconds to 1 second. Example: if you clap your
hands a single time and the start delay is set to 0.1 second, the recording will not start, as the
handclap was shorter than 0.1 seconds.
The “STOP DELAY” permits to adjust the duration of recording once the sound level drops below the
threshold level and can be set from 5 seconds up to 15 minutes or nonstop. Once the delay is passed,
the machine will return to the waiting position ready for the next recording
The left picture shows the machine ready
to record automatically. The right picture
shows the machine in the record mode.
