Adjust the recording volume level.
Minimizing noise with the low-cut function
Minimize unwanted noises, such as wind noise, air-conditioning noise, and vibration noise, by attenuating low-frequency
components of the audio input from the INPUT1 or INPUT2 jack.
1.
Change the LOW CUT (INPUT1) or LOW CUT (INPUT2) switch setting.
Select either "300Hz" or "100Hz" depending on the noise to minimize.
Adjusting the recording volume level
You can adjust the recording volume level of the audio input from the INPUT1, INPUT2, or INPUT3 jack.
1.
Set the AUTO/MAN(/LINK) switch for the audio input jack (INPUT1/INPUT2/INPUT3) to "MAN."
2.
Rotate the AUDIO LEVEL dial to adjust the volume to the appropriate level.
Make sure that the volume is at the appropriate level by monitoring the audio recording volume with the
connected headphones or the volume level meter on the camera.
Hint
To automatically adjust the recording volume level, set the AUTO/MAN(/LINK) switch to "AUTO." If the input audio is loud, the
recording volume level will be lowered automatically to avoid audio distortion.
To automatically synchronize the adjustment of the recording volume level of the audio input from the INPUT2 jack to the INPUT1
jack, set the AUTO/MAN/LINK (INPUT2) switch to "LINK." This synchronization comes in handy for receiving audio through the
INPUT1 and INPUT2 jacks and recording the audio in stereo. Setting the AUTO/MAN (INPUT1) switch to "MAN" and the
AUTO/MAN/LINK (INPUT2) switch to "LINK" disables the AUDIO LEVEL dial for the INPUT2 jack. This allows you to adjust the
recording volume levels of the audio input from both the INPUT1 and INPUT2 jacks simultaneously with the AUDIO LEVEL dial
for the INPUT1 jack.
Selecting the audio input for recording audio to the channels on the camera
With the INPUT SELECT switch, select the audio input jack on the XLR adaptor (INPUT1, INPUT2, or INPUT3) through
which audio is recorded to the channels on the camera.
When only the INPUT1 jack has an external device connected:
Set the switch to "IN1." Audio input from the INPUT1 jack will be recorded to both the CH1 and CH2 channels on the
camera.
