Introduction
Thank you for selecting the Marantz Professional PMD620
Handheld Solid State Recorder.
The PMD620 is an audio recorder that records in digital audio
formats onto a SD (Secure Digital) memory card.
SD cards, also used in digital cameras, are widely available at
consumer electronics retailers and computer resellers.
Features
– Stereo (2 channels) and mono (1 channel) audio recording and
playback.
– Audio inputs may be from :
• the built-in microphone(s),
• condenser or dynamic microphone(s) connected to the MIC
IN jack, or
• line level audio sources connected to the LINE IN jack.
– Audio outputs may be from :
• the built-in speaker,
• headphones connected to the PHONES jack, or
• analog audio devices such as an amplifier or other devices
connected to the LINE OUT jack.
– Records onto various types of SD cards.

5
– Computer compatible
The PMD620 records directly onto SD cards.
Recordings can be transferred to your desktop or laptop
computer by removing the SD card from the PMD620 or by
connecting the PMD620 to your computer via the USB port.
Audio recorded in the popular MP3 compression format is
directly available for intranet or internet file sharing.
MS-DOS™ and Windows compatible file system.
– Easy one control recording
Simply press the REC button.
– Automatic recording
The PMD620 can be set to stop recording when there is silence
(Silent Skip) and automatically start when sound resumes.
– Manual and automatic record level control (ALC).
– Different recording formats :
• Compressed recording using MP3 (MPEG1 Layer III) mono
and stereo. MP3 compressed at 64/128/192kbps (Stereo) or
32/64/96kbps (Mono).
• Uncompressed recording using 16/24-bit linear PCM (Pulse
Code Modulation).
– Copy Segment
Copy Segment works just like the copy and paste function
of your standard word processing program. It allows you to
“highlight” a section of a file by setting an in point and an
out point, and then paste that section into a new file without
destroying the original file(s).
– Data secured
The recorded audio data until the recording stops is kept even
if the power is interrupted suddenly during recording.
