Re: Mono channels 'cancelling' each other out when I record with an external mic

Now I am confused again...

I contacted the guy I bought it from and he told me this:

"But just want to let you know that the cable you bought from me is a mono cable. 3pin XLR Mic's are all mono mics.

It's the camcorder itself that takes the mono signal from the mic and splits it into left and right channels.

However, it doesn't seem to me that you are running the cable directly into the camera mic input."

The only relevant part of that is "the cable you bought from me is a mono cable." When I said that It was indeed stereo, that was off something I misread on the auction. Are there such things as mono and stereo cables? Now I'm not sure if I've messed up the whole concept.

I bought it from an auction on ebay, you can look at it here and tell me what you think:

Thank you so much,

Greg
