FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS Features What are the main features of this model? The DM-420 is a high-quality, high-capacity digital recorder loaded with handy and intuitive usability features as well as support software that can run on both Windows PCs and Macs. It can record and play files in the MP3 and WMA audio formats. It has 2 GB of built-in flash memory and a card slot that holds one microSD or microSDHC card of up to 16 GB capacity (sold separately). Files can be transferred from the card to internal memory and vice-versa. The DM-420 introduces Recording and Playback “scenes” – configuration templates – that make it easy to enable an array of preferred settings via a single menu selection. Three of the Recording scenes are pre-set with optimal settings for specific recording conditions; another three can be customized by the user. Five Playback scenes are available. There are five folders for organizing recordings and separate folders for storing Podcasts, Music files and audio content purchased from Audible.com.® The Music folder holds WMA or MP3 music files transferred from Windows Media® Player or iTunes®. The ZOOM microphone incorporates DiMAGIC® Corporation’s DVM (DiMAGIC Virtual Microphone) technology for directional recording, and DiMAGIC’s Euphony psychoacoustic technology for enhanced playback in the recorder. The DM-420 also includes accessibility features designed to help the visually impaired. The Voice Guide speaks aloud menu items as they are selected in any of 19 languages. 1 The recorder’s buttons feature ridges and grooves to make them more identifiable by touch. After transferring the files to a computer via the bundled USB 2.0 cable, the included Olympus Sonority software can be used to manage, archive and edit WMA files made with the recorder on Windows and Mac platforms. (The ability to edit MP3 files is available at additional cost via the Olympus Sonority Plus upgrade.) The software also enables subscription to and download from podcast URLs. The podcasts can be transferred to the recorder’s Podcast folder for playback at the user’s convenience. The bundled NiMH batteries can be charged in the unit while it is plugged into a computer’s USB port, so you can keep them conveniently topped off while you work with your files. 1The default languages are English, French and Spanish; however, the others may be uploaded to the recorder from a computer by using the Olympus Sonority software. What are Recording Scenes? Recording scenes are essentially sets of recorder settings that can be enabled all at once by making a single menu selection. This function is located in the Rec Menu as Rec Scene. The DM-420 has six recording scene options. Three are pre-set out of the box; each is optimized for recording in specific conditions. The other three are reserved for User Settings, allowing for customization to suit your preferences. To enable a User Settings scene, select one of the available User Settings options and then choose Scene Save. The recorder’s current configuration will be saved as a scene. The table below shows the menu settings that are applied in each of the preset Recording Scenes as well as the default settings when Rec Scene is set to Off. Only the listed functions are affected when a User Settings recording scene is saved.
