Advanced Operation

Using Cameras that have Manual Audio Controls

If your camera allows you to disable the AGC feature we recommend

that you do so to get the best performance. Set the camera to manual

mode and the camera gain as follows:

Canon DSLR cameras 1 click above off

Nikon DSLR cameras

(With gain settings between 0 to 20) Set to 5

(With gain settings LO, MED, HI) Set to LO (note special padded

output cable may be needed)

Other DSLR cameras Set the gain to between the lowest

setting and about 25% of maximum.

You will have to do some test

recordings to find the optimum

setting and to calibrate the VU meter

to the camera.

This setup will keep the gain in the camera low for the best signal to

noise ratio.
