This feature allows the player to sense sound and to record only when you are speaking into the microphone. When dictation stops for about three seconds, recording will pause and then start again automatically when you resume dictation.

• AVR works better for dictation applications than lecture or conference recordings as background noise can cause some false triggers.
• The first syllable or two may be lost when you start recording because this sound is used to turn on the AVR feature. It is a good practice to make some sounds or say a short word to activate the AVR before you begin actual dictation. The recording LED indicator will illuminate when AVR is active or will blink when AVR is inactive.
