Channel 1 Input
To increase or decrease levels for channel 1, move the audio slider icon left or right. If you're using
the Micro Cinema Camera, use the left and right arrow buttons on the camera. The external audio
input overrides the built in microphone and is recorded to audio channel 1.
Channel 2 uses Channel 1 Input
Select 'yes' if you only have channel 1 input and want to record the same external audio to channels
1 and 2. You can leave this set to 'no' if you only want to record one channel of audio.
Channel 2 Input
To increase or decrease levels for channel 2, move the audio slider icon left or right. If you're using
the Micro Cinema Camera, use the left and right arrow buttons on the camera. The external audio
input overrides the built in microphone and is recorded to audio channel 2.
Headphone and Speaker Volume
When headphones are connected, a headphone icon will be displayed. When no headphones are
detected, a speaker icon will be displayed. Headphones will always be active when recording or
playing back, however speakers will only work when playing back. Move the volume slider left or
right to increase or decrease audio monitoring levels.
Audio Input
Select if your audio input is from the 'camera' or from an external audio 'input' such as a microphone.
Automatic Gain Control
Setting the automatic gain control to 'on' will allow your Blackmagic Micro Cinema Camera to
automatically adjust the audio input levels during recording. The gain control will automatically
increase or decrease the recording level depending on the strength of the sound in your environment.
This is useful in environments where sound levels can be unpredictably loud or quiet. For example,
loud unpredictable bursts and moments of quiet during a fireworks display or a live performance.
Audio Timecode Input
Select 'on' if you want to embed LTC timecode via the 'mic' input into your recording on Blackmagic
Micro Cinema Camera. Having embedded timecode is useful for syncing multiple clips during post
production. For example, when using the multi camera editing feature in DaVinci Resolve 12.
