Line input or Mic input for Sennheiser wireless G2? at DVinfo.net

Greg Quinn · January 4th, 2007, 10:14 AM

I'm very new to HDV technology, but have snagged myself a Sony HVR-V1U, which has switchable line/mic XLR inputs. I have a set of Sennheiser Evolution G2 wireless mics. They say there are no stupid questions, but here goes: I thought that the output from the G2 wireless receiver should be received at the camera as line, but the gain is terribly low, even with everything cranked up on the receiver. It seems to work fine when the input is set to "mic", but is this correct?
Thanks
Greg

Check out this thread and I have mine set to Mic level coming off the G2 system in to my JVC HD110
