Recording Audio

Using the INPUT 1/INPUT 2 Terminals

Using the INPUT 1/INPUT 2 terminals, you can record audio independently to two audio channels from a
microphone or analog audio input source.
98
To select the audio source, set the INPUT 1 or INPUT 2 switch to
LINE or MIC as necessary.
• 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 a microphone or device that does not support
phantom power, make sure to set the corresponding INPUT switch to MIC or LINE, respectively. If you set the
switch to MIC+48V, the microphone or device may be damaged.
Recording a Single Audio Input to Two Audio Channels
By default, 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 audio input into 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.
