Initial Setup
Connect your microphones or other audio gear to the adapter via
the XLR inputs.
Set the PH switches to on only for condenser type mics that
require phantom power to operate. DO NOT activate phantom
power when attaching wireless microphones!
Set the PH VOLTAGE switch as follows:
a. OFF if no phantom is being used on either channel
b. 48V if either channel requires 48 volt phantom
c. 12V if the mics can operate on 12 volts to save on battery
power
Set the GAIN switch to +20dB as an initial setting. You should
monitor the VU Meter in the camera to see if you need to lower or
raise the gain depending on what mics you are using and the gain
setting of the camera.
Set the M/S switch to M for mono when using one microphone. Set
the unused channel level control fully counter-clockwise to 0 to
disable it to prevent noise. When using two microphones, you
should normally set the switch to S for stereo to keep each
channel separated.
Set the LEFT and RIGHT level controls fully counter-clockwise to 0.
Plug your headphones into the phone jack on the camera to
monitor the audio. Ensure that the volume control is set low to
avoid excessively loud audio damaging your hearing.
