Rear Panel

1. Battery Compartment: Insert 4

AA batteries into this

compartment to power the unit.

Note: If recording with 4 or more

channels using 48V phantom

power, a USB power adapter or a

computer’s USB bus power must

be used in order to provide the

necessary power (1A) to all

channels.

Bottom Panel

1. Tripod Locking Hole: Attach your tripod here for a

secure connection.

2. 1/4” Threaded Insert: Connect your mounting

adapter from a tripod here.

Right Side Panel

1. Power On/Off/Hold Switch: Slide this switch

down to power PMD-706 on or off. Slide this

switch up to activate or deactivate the Hold

feature. When Hold is activated, all of PMD-706's

buttons will be disabled to prevent accidental

changes.

2. XLR+1/4” TRS Inputs: Connect a microphone or

line-level device to these XLR+1/4” (6.35 mm)

inputs.

3. Micro USB Port: Connect this port to a

computer with the included USB cable. This

connection will power PMD-706. You can also

use this connection to transfer files between PMD-706 and your computer. You can also connect this

port to a USB power adapter (sold separately) to power PMD-706 from a standard power outlet.

Note: If recording with 4 or more channels using 48V phantom power, a USB power adapter or a

computer’s USB bus power must be used in order to provide the necessary power (1A) to all channels.

4. Line Out: Connect this 1/8” (3.5 mm) output to a mixer, another recorder, or powered speakers. Go to

Menu > Output Control

to adjust the volume output.

5. Headphone Output: Connect this 1/8” (3.5 mm) output to headphones for monitoring the incoming

audio signal or audio playback.

6. Headphone Volume Control: Adjust the headphone output volume using this control.

Note: Before connecting any device (condenser or dynamic microphones, line-level devices, etc.) to

any XLR, 1/4” input, or external inputs, ensure phantom power is turned off. Connecting or

disconnecting devices to or from these inputs while phantom power is on can damage the device or

PMD-706.

Setup Examples

Example 1 – Mono/Stereo Recording

This example shows:

- condenser microphones on Inputs 1 and 2 (using +48V phantom power)

- a dynamic microphone on Input 3

- an audio device on Input 4 with a 50 ms delay

The menu options are configured to record a stereo file from Inputs 1 and 2 and two mono files from

Inputs 3 and 4.

The recorded files will be named as follows:

PMD706_0001_CH3_M.WAV

PMD706_0001_CH4_M.WAV

PMD706_0001_CH12_St.WAV

15

Example 2 – Stereo and Mix Recording

This example shows:

- condenser microphones on Inputs 1 and 2 (using +48V phantom power)

- a dynamic microphone on Input 3

- an audio device on Input 4

The menu options are configured to record a stereo file and mix track from Inputs 1 and 2 (with

Left/Right level at 50%), Input 3 center panned, and Input 4 level at 75% (left) and 25% (right).

The recorded files will be named as follows:

PMD706_0001_CH12_St.WAV

PMD706_0001_CH34_MIX.WAV

16

Example 3 – Stereo and Mix Recording

This example shows:

- condenser microphones on Inputs 1 and 2 (using +48V phantom power)

- a dynamic microphone on Input 3

- an audio device on Input 4

The menu options are configured to record 4 mono files from Inputs 1-4 and a mix of Inputs 1-4 on

tracks 5/6 with CH1 going to the left, CH2 to the right, and CH3 and CH4 mono.

The recorded files will be named as follows:

PMD706_0001_CH1_M.WAV

PMD706_0001_CH2_M.WAV

PMD706_0001_CH3M.WAV

PMD706_0001_CH4_M.WAV

PMD706_0001_CH56_MIX.WAV

17

Example 4 – Dual Mono Recording

This example shows:

- a dynamic microphone on Input 1

The menu options are configured to record a dual mono file with the safety track at -9 dB lower than

Input 1.

The recorded files will be named as follows:

PMD706_0001_CH1_DM1.WAV

PMD706_0001_CH1_DM2.WAV

18

Example 5 – Dual Stereo Recording

This example shows:

- condenser microphones on Inputs 1 and 2 (using +48V phantom power)

The menu options are configured to record a dual stereo file with the safety track at -12 dB lower

than inputs 1 and 2. The left stereo channel will be CH1, and the right stereo channel will be CH2.

The recorded files will be named as follows:

PMD706_0001_CH12_DSt1.WAV

PMD706_0001_CH12_DSt2.WAV

19

Example 6 – M/S Recording

M/S (Mid/Side) recording consists of two microphones: a directional mic pointed towards the sound

source and a figure 8 mic pointed towards the sides (Figure 1).

• Plug the mics into PMD-706 as shown in Figure 2. You can use Input 3 or 5 instead of Input 1 or

4, or you could use Input 6 instead of Input 2.

• To record without processing, use the M/S R mode. You will be able to monitor CH1 and CH2

without processing.

• To record without processing but monitor it with processing, use the M/S P mode.

• To record without processing or monitoring it, use mono (M) recording for Input 1 and Input 2, or

use stereo (ST) recording for Inputs 1/2.

Note: This example shows a specialized mid/side recording microphone. You could alternatively use

a standard cardioid mic to capture the mid field and figure-8 mic (perpendicular to the cardioid mic)

to capture the side fields.
