Note

When you select that the MIC LEVEL control is linked with the LEVEL (CH-1/CH-2) control(s), if the MIC LEVEL control is turned fully counterclockwise to 0, the audio signal input to AUDIO IN CH-1/CH-2 connectors cannot be recorded. Before adjusting the audio level using the LEVEL (CH-1/CH-2) controls, confirm the setting of the MIC LEVEL control.

microphone

You can adjust the audio level input from the front microphone connected to the MIC IN connector, which is to be recorded in audio channels CH-1 and CH-2.

Notes

When 1 and 2 are not displayed under the audio channel level meters, the CH-1/2 / CH-3/4 switch is set to the CH-3/4 position. Set this switch to CH-1/2.

If the XLR connection automatic detection mode is set to ON, when the cables are connected to the AUDIO IN CH-1/CH-2 connectors, the camcorder detects the connection to the AUDIO IN CH-1/CH-2 connectors. Thus, the AUDIO IN switch is internally reset to REAR and the audio signals input to the AUDIO IN CH-1/CH-2 connectors are automatically selected.

Before adjusting the audio level of the front microphone, confirm that no cables are connected to the AUDIO IN CH-1/CH-2 connectors. Or set the REAR XLR AUTO to OFF on the VTR MODE 1 page of the MAINTENANCE menu.
