Description
The Beachtek DXA-SLR PURE is a two-channel, passive audio adapter
for connecting amplified signals from a wireless mic or a mixing board to
any DSLR camera that has a built-in mic jack. It can also be used with
any camcorder or other audio recording device that has a mic jack. Note
that it is not designed to connect directly to unamplified microphones.
The DXA-SLR PURE uses exceptionally low noise, wide bandwidth,
balancing transformers for pure, clean audio with no electronics to get in
the way. This allows you to record high quality audio directly to the
camera which will always be in sync with the video. Direct audio
recording eliminates the need to have a separate audio recording device
and syncing the audio in post editing.
The transformer balanced inputs provide electrical isolation from the
camera for protection and also to reduce the possibility of ground loop
noise. Built-in VU meters makes it easy to verify the proper signal levels
at a glance, while the level controls allow you to adjust the output signal
for optimum recording. The phone jack lets you monitor the audio from
the adapter during recording, or camera during playback.
The adapter mounts to the bottom of the camera and can also be
mounted to any standard tripod.
