Can you record no sound with XLS-1?
I was wondering if it is possible to record NO SOUND while filming
with the Canon XLS-1? I'm not sure if there is a way to make it have no audio when filming a scene. Thanks for your time, Todd |

An then select manual gain, line level, and turn the gain to zero to minimize the residual noise floor in the recorded audio tracks. (They should be around -72 dB or lower relative to max digital record level)
Of course you can delete or mute the sound in post. |

Ours is not to reason why, ours is to answer Todd's question.
Whether or not this is a good solution to his situation is a separate matter altogether.
