Recording sound
The DSR 200 comes with an on board microphone as well as an external shotgun
microphone. To make the most of the sound recording facilities a number of settings on
the camera should be made.
To gain the optimum from the microphone at the front of the camera set both switches to
AUTO.
The two REC LEVEL dials will only operate if using the REC LEVEL in the manual position
and not in auto mode.
Selecting the on board microphone or the external shotgun microphone
The upper switches relate to channel 1, the bottom switches to channel 2. Selecting either
channel 1 or 2 has implications on where to plug in the external microphone, it is therefore
necessary to compare which channel is selected here and which channel the external
microphone is plugged into (see diagrams 12 & 13).
