Tip :: You can adjust the amount of sound the microphone will pick up by using the INPUT LEVEL buttons on the side of the MP3 recorder. If the sound is too quiet, raise the level by pressing +. If the red PEAK light comes on, the sound is too loud and will distort, so you need to lower the input level using the - button.
