Recording Audio Recording the Same Analog Audio Input to Two Channels By default, when using analog audio sources (line in or microphone) connected to the INPUT terminals, 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 same analog audio source connected to 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. Select > [¡ Audio Setup] > [CH2 Input] > [INPUT 2] or [INPUT 1]. 105 Options [INPUT 2]: [INPUT 1]: Records audio to each channel separately. Audio input into INPUT 1 is recorded to CH1, while audio input into INPUT 2 is recorded to CH2. Audio input into INPUT 1 is recorded to both channels. Audio input into INPUT 2 will not be recorded. Adjusting the Audio Recording Level In CAMERA mode, you can adjust the audio recording level of analog audio inputs (INPUT terminals or MIC terminal). You can select automatic or manual audio level adjustment, and adjust each audio channel separately or adjust CH1/CH2 or CH3/CH4 together (when the audio level adjustment of the audio channels is linked, A 106). The audio recording level of digital audio inputs and the built-in monaural microphone cannot be adjusted. Automatic Audio Level Adjustment for CH1, CH2 or CH1/CH2 Set the audio level switch of the desired channel to A (automatic) to let the camera automatically adjust that channel's audio level. CH1/CH2 audio level switches Manual Audio Level Adjustment for CH1, CH2 or CH1/CH2 You can set the audio level manually from - to +18 dB. 1 Set the audio level switch of the desired channel to M (manual). 2 Turn the corresponding audio level dial to adjust the audio level. • For reference, the 0 corresponds to - , 5 corresponds to 0 dB, and 10 corresponds to +18 dB. • As a guideline, adjust the audio recording level so that the audio level meter on the screen will go to the right of the -18 dB mark (one mark right of the -20 dB mark) only occasionally. • Closing the protective cover will prevent the audio controls from being changed inadvertently.
