<Note>

z Audio Channels 1 and 2 always receive the signals selected with the AUDIO IN CH1 and CH2 switches.

Specific audio settings are performed through the <MIC/ AUDIO1> and <MIC/AUDIO2> screens, which are accessible from the MAIN OPERATION page.

For more information, see [8-6 MAIN OPERATION].

3While checking the audio channel level meter in the display window or the audio level meter in the viewfinder, adjust the AUDIO LEVEL CH1/CH2 control.

Note that if the level exceeds the top bar (0 dB), the word OVER illuminates to show that the input level is excessive. The adjustment made in such a way that the maximum level will not reach the 0 dB bar.
