Adjusting The Audio Level - Canon XF100 Instruction Manual

Activating the Microphone Attenuator
You can activate the external microphone's attenuator (20 dB) if the XLR
terminal switch is set to MIC or MIC+48V.
1 Open the desired XLR terminal's microphone attenuator submenu.
[m Audio Setup] [Audio Input]
2 Select [On] and then press SET.
IMPORTANT
• When connecting a microphone or device that does not support
phantom power, make sure to set the XLR terminal switch to MIC or
LINE, respectively. If you set the switch to MIC+48V, the microphone or device may be damaged.

Adjusting the Audio Level

You can set the audio level to auto or manual for each channel. When both CH1 and CH2 are set to the built-in
microphone (0 78), the settings for CH1 will automatically be applied to CH2.
Automatic Audio Level Adjustment
Set the audio level switch of the desired channel to A (automatic) to let the
camcorder automatically adjust that channel's audio level. If CH1 and CH2
are set to the built-in microphone and you set CH1 to automatic audio level
adjustment, then the camcorder will also automatically adjust the audio
level for CH2.
NOTES
• When both CH1 and CH2 are set to the same audio input (external
microphone or external line input), if the audio level is set to automatic,
you can use the [m Audio Setup]
setting (0 146) to link the audio level adjustment of both channels.
