RE: Olympus DM-520 record level
If you know you're set to manual, just press the left and right arrows while in record. You'll need to be monitoring with an earphone but I think this will do the trick.

I have the microphone sensativity set to low and the recording level setting set to manual. Recording my piano with internal mics, I still have lots of distortion. Can't seem to find where to adjust record level. Any ideas? Thank you anybody.

RE: Olympus DM-520 record level
Once you have set the recording settings so manual volume is activated (the best way is to create a recording profile for this) To adjust the mic levels while recording, or in pause, press the left and right arrows to reduce or increase the volume. The up and down arrows control the headphone volume when recording, so you may wish to reduce this if you are using headphones to monitor.

Re: Olympus DM-520 record level
Thanks Tim, but I didn't know there was a pause. How do I get it into pause while recording? I notice that there are three preset record scenes. If I set up a level that I like, can I make another preset; or do I modify an existing one? The manual certainly isn't clear about this.

RE: Olympus DM-520 record level
On the DM-520 You always go immediately into record when you press the record button, but if you press the record button while recording it double-beeps and enters pause. It also beeps after you have been pausing for 1 minute or so, as a reminder. As for the recording scenes, there are three (unchangeable) scenes, which all record in WMA, and pre-sets 1 2 and 3 which you can set up in any way you like. As an aside, It may be my imagination, but I think recording in WAVE at 48 k sounds warmer than wave at 44.1, perhaps its to do with down-sampling algorithms.
