Use the INPUT 1/2 switches to switch the
audio input.
LINE: (audio equipment is connected)
Input level is 0 dBu.
MIC: (an external microphone is connected)
Input level is -50 dBu.
You can change the input level to -60 dBu
in the setup menus, RECORDING SETUP
screen MIC GAIN1 and MIC GAIN2. (Page 56)
Be aware that sensitivity will be higher if
you choose -60 dBu so you will record more
noise.

When using the phantom microphone
(which requires + 48V power supply),
set the INPUT 1/2 (MIC POWER +48V)
switches to ON.
ON: (When using the phantom microphone)
+48V power supply to INPUT 1/2 terminals.
OFF: (When a phantom microphone is not
connected)
No power supply for INPUT 1/2 terminals.
• The battery will discharge faster if you use a
phantom microphone.
• Set to OFF if you connect equipment not
compatible with +48V. You can damage such
equipment if you leave the setting at ON.
• When using the AG-MC200G (optional), set
the MIC GAIN item to -50 dBu.
