Attaching the Microphone
31
Preparations
Two channels (CH-1/CH-2) of audio can be
recorded (Linear PCM recording) in
synchronization with video recording.
Attach the microphone as follows:
1 Loosen the screw of the microphone
holder and open the cover.
2 Set the microphone on the holder with
the UP indication facing up.
3 Close the microphone holder cover for
the original condition to secure, then
connect the microphone cable to the
AUDIO IN connectors (CH-1 and CH-
2) and secure the cable at the cable
clamp under the holder.
Connect the white plug of the supplied
microphone to the CH-1 connector of the
camcorder and the red plug to the CH-2
connector.
4 Set the LINE/MIC/MIC+48V switches
(CH-1 and CH-2) to MIC+48V.
5 Set “EXT CH Select” of “Audio Input”
(page 113) of the AUDIO SET menu to
“CH-1/CH-2.”
Note
Even when recording CH-1 for 2-channel
monaural by setting “EXT CH Select” of “Audio
Input” (page 113) of the AUDIO SET menu to
“CH-1,” set the LINE/MIC/MIC+48V switch for
CH-2 to the same position as that for CH-1.
However, if a microphone which supports both
stereo and monaural modes is connected and
power of +48 V is supplied to CH-2, the
microphone is not switched to monaural mode,
but the directivity goes the left channel side. For
such a microphone, set the LINE/MIC/MIC+48V
