One Channel XLR, One Channel front mic?
Maybe I have missed something, but is it possible that you can't take one channel from an external source (XLR) and the other from the front mic for wild sound?
I can use an external mic, but I was travelling light and did not bring it with me. Thanks, George |

Nope, when you enable the XLR's the internal mike is disabled. Unfortunate, but this is the same as the PDX-10, and of course also the same as using a Beachtek box with an FX-1 or VX-2100.

Treu... it is unfortunate...
One way I got around this was.... do about 4 weddings.... thats most of your money back, sell the FX1, and then buy a Z1... lol.... but then, if you made that much money with an FX1, I doubt you'd buy a Z1 and you'd go straight to a JVC, or a canon. |

Actually I was talking about the Z1 (as I assume George was). It cannot record from the built-in mike and the XLR's at the same time.

This is what I use for a second mic... the MK-012... sounds great!
A Schoeps mk copy, but don't buy one at the Guitar Center, they are Chinese fakes. Go to the link below and ask for Ken Heaton. I am not being compensated for this endorsment. http://www.oktavausa.com/ George |
