Recording to CF/CD
“Pan” refers to the left/right position of the sound. On the
CD-2, the pan of the mics connected to the MIC1 and MIC2
jacks can be set to left, right, or center.
When using two mics to record a lecture or band performance,
you can set the pan to left and right so that the natural
spaciousness of the sound is captured (i.e., stereo recording).

When you record via the internal mics, the left and right
channels of the recorded sound may be perceived as not being
balanced, depending on the location in which the CD-2 is
placed.
For example, if the CD-2 has been placed at an angle relative
to the audio source you’re recording, the sound from the mic
that is closer to the audio source will sound louder.
You can adjust the left/right volume balance of the internal
mics as appropriate for the location in which the CD-2 is
placed.

will pick up sound at equal level.
When set to L50, no sound will be picked up by the
R channel mic. When set to R50, no sound will be
picked up by the L channel mic.
