Panasonic HPX300 Operating Instructions - Page 55

Chapter 4 Adjustments and Settings for Recording When operating the AG-HPX300P without a sound recordist, it is recommended that the FRONT AUDIO LEVEL control should be used to adjust the audio level. In advance, check the level meter in the viewfinder screen and use the FRONT AUDIO LEVEL control to adjust the appropriate audio channel to prevent input of excessive audio signals. Selecting Function for the FRONT AUDIO LEVEL Control Use the menu options FRONT VR CH1 and FRONT VR CH2 in the AUDIO SETUP screen to determine whether or not the FRONT AUDIO LEVEL control should be enabled. Selecting an input signal in the menu will enable FRONT AUDIO LEVEL control operations for that input signal. • When the FRONT AUDIO LEVEL control is set to level 10, it controls AUDIO LEVEL CH1 and CH2.
