CH-2: Signal selected by the AUDIO IN CH-2 switch
Note
When recording mixed signals by setting this switch to
MIX, be sure to confirm that the emphasis settings of the
two channels (on/off) are the same. If they are different, the
camcorder cannot record or play back mixed signals
correctly.
When the AES/EBU format audio signal is selected, the
emphasis settings are determined by the channel status of
the AES/EBU format audio signal (emphasis bit).
When an audio signal other than the AES/EBU format
audio signal is selected, the emphasis setting depends on
the setting of AU REC EMPHASIS (page 154) on the
AUDIO-2 page of the MAINTENANCE menu.
m LINE / AES/EBU / MIC selectors
Select the audio source of the audio input signals input to
the AUDIO IN CH1/CH2 connectors.
LINE: Line input audio equipment
AES/EBU: AES/EBU format audio signal
MIC: Microphone input
Note
If this selector is set to the MIC position and the +48V/
OFF switch is set to +48V, and if you inadvertently connect
any audio device other than a microphone to the AUDIO
IN CH1/CH2 connectors, the device may be damaged.
