Level meters used on the DR-F7 are analog needle VU reading meters with peak indicator for easy adjustment of optimum recording level. Full-logic transport controls used on the DR-F7 let it respond to the slightest finger contact for fast and effortless transport function selection.
Dolby C-type used in the DR-F7 provides 20 dB of noise reduction above about 1,000 Hz, fully doubling the amount given by B-type.
