Using pin 3 as a high level input on recording (with pin 1 a microphone-level input) was certainly done on some of the simpler Philips recorders with only one DIN socket for everything. This machine has separate microphone sockets (pins 3 and 5 not used) but I guess they wired it so that the same microphones could be used.
