Setting the Audio Input Type for the INPUT 1/INPUT 2 Terminals

Using the INPUT 1/INPUT 2 terminals, you can record audio independently from a microphone or audio input
source.
98
On the camcorder, set the audio-related switches for the INPUT
terminal you wish to use according to the type of audio input you
wish to use.
1 Set the audio input selection switch INPUT 1 or INPUT 2 to
AES/EBU (digital audio) or ANALOG (analog audio).
• When the switch is set to AES/EBU, the audio recording level for
that input cannot be adjusted.
2 If you selected analog audio, set the corresponding
ANALOG (analog source selection) switch to MIC
(microphone) or LINE (audio device).
• To supply a microphone with phantom power, set the switch to
MIC+48V instead. Make sure to connect the microphone first,
before turning the phantom power on. Keep the microphone
connected when turning off the phantom power.
• When using the INPUT terminals to record to only one channel,
use the INPUT 1 terminal.
IMPORTANT
• When connecting an analog microphone or device that does not
support phantom power, make sure to set the ANALOG switch to
MIC or LINE, respectively. If you set the switch to MIC+48V, the
microphone or device may be damaged.

Selecting the Audio Input Source for Audio Channels

You can select the audio input source that will be recorded on CH1/CH2 or CH3/CH4, independently for each
pair of audio channels. For details refer to the Audio Settings and Recorded Audio Channels table (A 95).
Operating modes:
1 Select the desired pair of audio channels.
> [¡ ! Audio Setup] > [Select CH1/CH2 Input] or [Select CH3/CH4 Input]
2 Select [INPUT Terminals] (external microphone or audio device), [MIC Terminal] (external
microphone) or [Built-in Mic] (built-in microphone) and then press SET.
• If necessary, repeat steps 1 and 2 to select the audio input source for the other pair of audio channels.
Recording a Single Analog Audio Input to Two Audio Channels
By default, when using analog audio sources (line in or microphone) connected to the INPUT terminals, each
audio input is recorded to a separate audio channel (INPUT 1 to CH1 and INPUT 2 to CH2).
If necessary (for example, as an audio backup recording), you can record the same analog audio source
connected to the INPUT 1 terminal to both audio channels, CH1 and CH2. In that case, you can adjust the audio
recording levels of each channel independently of each other.
1 Select [CH2 Input].
