b Notes
• For stereo recording, set your camcorder to
record the left-side sound in CH1 and the right-
side sound in CH2.
z Tips
• Sony recommends that you set CH2 of the REC
CH SELECT switch to the center position in the
following cases:
– To avoid no audio input to CH2 by recording
the same audio input with that inputted to
CH1.
– To record different audio inputs from the
same audio source simultaneously with
different audio settings to make the audio
recording reliable. For example, you can set
the audio level manually for the audio input to
CH1 and automatically for that to CH2, and
record the inputs in the respective channels.
2 Set the INPUT1/2/3/4 switch.
If your microphone needs a power
supply, set the INPUT1/2/3/4 switch to
MIC+48V. If it does not need a power
supply, set to MIC.
b Notes
• Setting the INPUT1/2/3/4 switch to MIC+48V
when a microphone that does not need a power
supply is attached may damage the microphone
or impair the sound recording quality.
