A question on audio at DVinfo.net

Bob Safay · September 18th, 2009, 12:21 PM

Next week I will begin working on a training video. The video will contain dialog between two people. My question is, can I use two Sony wireless mic and two receivers (different channels and frequencies) connected to both of the XLR's on the back of the Canon XL-2 to produce audio from both receivers? Do I need to change the channels on the canon's interior menu? Thanks for any help. Bob

Hi Bob. If the wireless receivers are mono (single audio channel), you can connect one receiver to one XLR, and the second receiver to the other XLR. You shouldn't need to set anything special in the menus to record these 2 audio channels to the tape.
