Adding Audio Input Connectors
You can connect up to four channels of XLR audio devices to the unit at the same time by using an XLR-K2M XLR adaptor (not supplied) or XLR-K3M XLR adaptor (not supplied).
XLR-K2M
Attach the XLR adaptor to the multi interface shoe, and set [CH3] – [Source] to [Shoe CH1] and [CH4] – [Source] to [Shoe CH2] on the [Audio] status screen.
Or, set [Audio] – [Audio Input] – [CH3 Input Select] to [Shoe CH1] and [CH4 Input Select] to [Shoe CH2] in the full menu.
XLR-K2M is a 2-channel compatible microphone, not 4-channel compatible. Since CH3/CH4 are not supported, channels set to [Shoe CH3] or [Shoe CH4] on the camera will be silent.
XLR-K3M
Attach the XLR adaptor to the multi interface shoe, and set [CH3] – [Source] to [Shoe CH1] or [Shoe CH3] and [CH4] – [Source] to [Shoe CH2] or [Shoe CH4] on the [Audio] status screen.
Or, set [Audio] – [Audio Input] – [CH3 Input Select] to [Shoe CH1] or [Shoe CH3] and [CH4 Input Select] to [Shoe CH2] or [Shoe CH4] in the full menu.
Note
- The unit supports the 4ch digital audio interface of the XLR-K3M.
- If [Audio] – [Audio Input] – [CH3 Level]/[CH4 Level] are set to [Audio Input Level], then [Audio Input Level] on the unit is multiplied by the level adjusted on the XLR adaptor. [Audio Input Level] is also enabled when the XLR adaptor switch is set to AUTO. When [Through] is selected, audio will be recorded at the level adjusted with the XLR adaptor.
- Functions of the unit that overlap will be disabled for channels on which the XLR adaptor is selected as the input. Use the switches and dials on the XLR adaptor to perform adjustments.
