Selecting the Input Type for the INPUT 1/INPUT 2 Terminals
Change the position of the corresponding INPUT (audio source selection) switch according to the audio device
connected to the INPUT 1/INPUT 2 terminals.
Set the INPUT 1 or INPUT 2 switch to LINE, MIC, or MIC+48V.
When using the INPUT terminals to record to only one channel, use the INPUT 1 terminal.
IMPORTANT
When using a microphone that requires phantom power, turn off the camera and set the respective INPUT
switch to MIC. After connecting a +48V compatible microphone, switch the INPUT switch to MIC+48V.
Do not connect or disconnect microphones and other audio devices from any INPUT terminal when the
corresponding INPUT (audio source selection) switch is set to the MIC+48V position. This may damage the
camera and/or device.
Selecting the Input Type for the MIC Terminal
Change the setting according to the audio device connected to the MIC terminal.

Select [MIC (with Power Supply)] to supply plug-in power to the external microphone.
IMPORTANT
Connecting an external microphone that does not require power supply when [MIC Input] is set to [MIC (with
Power Supply)], may damage the microphone.

Recording the Same Analog Audio Input to Two Channels
If you set the audio input source to [INPUT Terminals], by default, each audio input is recorded to a separate
audio channel (INPUT 1 to CH1 and INPUT 2 to CH2).
If necessary audio from the INPUT 1 terminal can be recorded on both CH1 and CH2 (CH2 as backup). In that
case, you can adjust the audio recording levels of each channel independently of each other.
Select > [
¡
Audio Setup] > [CH2 Input] > Desired option.
Options
[INPUT 2]: 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.
[INPUT 1]: Audio input into INPUT 1 is recorded to both channels. Audio input into INPUT 2 will not be
recorded.
