If you experience difficulties, read this section first. It contains tips on how to resolve
various problems.

Problems with recording

Sound recorded from the mic is heard only from the L (left)
channel
Some mics are stereo, while others are monaural. If you are using a monaural mic, the
sound will be recorded on the L (left) channel.
In this case, you can use "System settings (Setup mode)" (p. 54) 10 Input Select to
select MONO as the mic type. This setting is remembered even when the power is
turned off.
Refer to: "System settings (Setup mode)" (p. 54)
Can't start recording from recording-standby mode
Check the remaining space on your CompactFlash memory card. Recording is not
possible if there is little time remaining on the card. In this case, the R-1 will enter
recording-standby mode, but you will return to the play mode screen if you attempt to
start recording by pressing the record button or play button.
In recording-standby mode, the screen shows the amount of remaining recordable time.
An indication of 0:00:00 means that there is no time left. Please check the display.
Refer to: "Recordable times on a CompactFlash card" (p. 29)
Can't use the internal mic (Can't use an external mic)
The internal mic cannot be used if a mic, cable, or device is connected to the mic input
jack or line input jack. If you want to use the internal mic, don't connect anything to
the other input jacks.
"Mic input jack" (p. 15), "Line input jack" (p. 15),
Refer to:
"Recording with the internal microphone" (p. 29)
Recorded sound is distorted
The sound will distort if the input volume is too high. Adjust the input level
appropriately as described in "Adjusting the input level" (p. 30), (p. 33), (p. 36).
In some cases, the sound will distort if you apply an effect while recording. Adjust the
input level while the effect is applied. You can also try adjusting the effect parameters
so that distortion does not occur.
"Adjusting the input level" (p. 30), (p. 33), (p. 36)

"Applying an effect" (p. 52)
