5.5.1 Inputs 
 
 
 
Mic 1- 2 and Audio input 3-4     
 
By default, all inputs are enabled. Just plug in an audio source and it is active. Audio inputs that 
are On will automatically be mixed. Unconnected inputs will automatically be muted. Select Off to 
prevent audio/noise from connected but unused inputs. The activated audio sources are stored 
on camera presets. 
 
Mic 1 and 2 are intended for electrets type microphones. The microphone inputs are balanced 
with 24V phantom power.  
  
Audio input 3 (AUX) is intended for connection to external playback devices. As there is no 
acoustic echo canceller on this input it should not be connected to any microphones. The audio 
source connected to this input will be heard from the local speaker as well.  
 
Audio input 4 (VCR) is intended for connection to a VCR or DVD player. It can also be connected 
to other external playback devices. As there is no acoustic echo canceller on this input it should 
not be connected to any microphones. The audio entering this input will be heard from the local 
speaker as well. If Auto is selected, the audio from the VCR will only be heard when VCR is 
selected as video source. 
 
 
Mix Mode 
 
Auto 
 
The adjustment of each microphone signal is done automatically to obtain the best 
possible audio and minimize the background noise.  
 
Fixed     
 
Fixed will maintain a constant weighting of all microphones.  
 
 
VCR Ducking 
 
If VCR Ducking is activated, the VCR audio level will be attenuated if someone talks into the 
microphone or at the far end.  
 
The VCR ducking is only valid for audio input 4. If input 3 and 4 is configured to one stereo input 
pair, see 
Stereo Settings
, then the VCR ducking will apply to both input 3 and 4. 
 
Level Settings 
 
It is possible to adjust the audio input levels according to which external audio equipment is 
connected. The on-screen audio level indicator will make it easier to set the correct input level 
settings. The input level should be adjusted so that the average level reaches the transition 
between the green and the yellow area. The audio inputs are adjustable in steps of 1.5 dB from 0 
dB to 22.5 dB.
