Sharon, I don't know enough about that recorder to be of much use to you. I'm sorry. I borrowed the machine from a friend, hoping to find something that would record music and sound without a lot of nonsense. Unfortunately, for me at least, the PTR1 just didn't do it. But I do remember that there are some menus in which you can select the type of recording you are going to make. But that's all I remember Sharon. Sorry about that.
