Sony M-100MC Key Features

Built-In Uni-Directional Mic

The M-100MC's Built-In Uni-Directional Microphone minimizes recording of peripheral sounds and is ideal for recording speaker at lectures and presentations.

Three Mic Sensitivity Modes (Lecture/Meeting/Dictation)

Lets you select best pickup sensitivity for recording a wide range of applications, from close-up personal dictation to large meetings.

Desktop Mic Stand

Allows the recorder to be set down on table or desk for hands-free operation.

Voice Operated Recording (VOR)

When you select the Voice Operated Recording mode, your Sony tape recorder automatically goes into Record-Pause mode. As soon as the microphone detects a noise to record, the VOR will release pause; the unit then begins recording. It continues recording as long as there is sound present. When the sound stops, the recorder will continue for a moment and then revert back to the Record-Pause mode. When the sound begins again, the recorder will release the pause and start recording again. VOR extends recording time by saving tape; allows for hands-free operation while recording.

Clear Voice Function

Enhances voice quality during recording and playback for greater clarity. Sony has boosted the milliWatt (mW) output of the amplifier. They've also upgraded the speaker itself to take advantage of the extra output. The speaker's frequency response is dedicated to the human vocal range. With Sony's Clear Voice Sound System, voices will have a rich clarity like you've never heard before!

Cue Marker Indexing

Cue Marker Indexing System lets you place an electronic "mark" at specific tape segments, and provides rapid access during Cue and Review.

The "Marker" is a tone that is audible only when using Cue or Review during playback.
