When the level adjustment dial is assigned to [CH1/2]
r Selection of level adjustment of channels 1/2
For the level adjustment method of channels 1/2, select <AUTO> (automatic adjustment) or <MANU> (manual adjustment by adjustment dial) by the
<AUDIO SELECT CH1/3>/<AUDIO SELECT CH2/4> switch.
When <MANU> is selected, the volume of channels 1/2 is adjusted by the <AUDIO LEVEL CH1/3>/<AUDIO LEVEL CH2/4> dial.
r Adjustment by <AUDIO LEVEL CH1/3>/<AUDIO LEVEL CH2/4> dial
Adjustment the <AUDIO LEVEL CH1/3>/<AUDIO LEVEL CH2/4> dial while viewing the audio channel level meter in the display window or the audio
level meter in the LCD monitor. When the topmost bar (0 dB) is exceeded, the [OVER] display is illuminated to indicate that input audio is excessive.
The maximum level must be adjusted so that the display does not reach 0 dB.
r Adjustment by <F.AUDIO LEVEL> dial
When operating the camera alone, we recommend using the <F.AUDIO LEVEL> dial to adjust the audio level. Select the audio channel to be adjusted
in advance, and while viewing the level meter of the viewfinder screen, adjust the level by the <F.AUDIO LEVEL> dial so that input does not become too
great.
When adjusting the recording level by the <F.AUDIO LEVEL> dial, perform the following operation. Select whether to enable [FRONT VR CH1] and
[FRONT VR CH2] on the line selected as the input signal of each channel in the main menu → [I/F SETUP] → [MIC/AUDIO].
[OFF]: Disabled
[FRONT]: Enabled when <FRONT> is selected for the input signal
[W.L.]: Enabled when wireless is selected for the input signal
[REAR]: Enabled when <REAR> is selected for the input signal
[ALL]: Enabled on all input lines
