Audio splitter problem

	Re: Audio splitter problem by John Fishback on May 11, 2009 at 5:40:44 pm I'm not familiar with that camera. My only thought is capture the video and channel 1 audio first, and then just capture channel 2 audio without video. Hopefully, someone who knows the camera will know how to capture it all at once. Otherwise, it takes twice the time to capture. You might try a post on the Panasonic forum. http://forums.creativecow.net/panasonicagdvx100 John MacPro 8-core 2.8GHz 8 GB RAM OS 10.5.5 QT7.5.5 Kona 3 Dual Cinema 23 ATI Radeon HD 3870 ATTO ExpressSAS R380 RAID Adapter, PDE Enclosure with 8-drive 6TB RAID 5 24" TV-Logic Monitor Final Cut Studio 2 (up to date) Pro Tools HD w SYNC IO, Yamaha DM1000, Millennia Media HV-3C, Neumann U87, Schoeps Mk41 mics, Genelec Monitors, PrimaLT ISDN Respond to this post   •   Return to posts index

	Re: Audio splitter problem by Ty Ford on May 12, 2009 at 3:09:21 am Hello Mark and welcome to the Cow Audio Forum, How weird is that? Only ONE XLR out for a camera with two tracks. They must never have expected it to be used as a deck. If you must use the camera, you pretty much have to make a second pass for the second audio track and try to sync it manually.

	Re: Audio splitter problem by Brian Reynolds on May 12, 2009 at 8:25:09 am Just check that the audio out XLR connector on the back of the camera.. is it a 5 pin or 3 pin? I think you will find you have a 3 pin female audio in, 4 pin DC power in and 5 pin audio out You will be able to switch between tracks 1/2 and 3/4 I have used a similar camera but a slightly different model and that has a 5 pin out. If it is 5 pin the connections are Pin 1 Earth Pin 2 L+ Pin 3 L- Pin 4 R+ Pin 5 R- The difference between Knowledge and Wisdom is... Knowledge is the knowing of facts....

	Re: Audio splitter problem by Ty Ford on May 12, 2009 at 10:36:33 am Brian, Good idea, but when I pulled up the owner's manual on the web, it indicated a Male XLR 3-P, which I assumed was a three pin. The language seemed to indicate that there was a monitor out switch that allowed switching from one track to another. Perhaps Mark can confirm.

	Re: Audio splitter problem by Brian Reynolds on May 12, 2009 at 10:47:21 am I just downloaded the manual as well, it looks like ch1 or ch2 or mix of 1+2 on a 3pin xlr. It looks like you will NOT get seperate tracks out. You may need to borrow or hire a machine to do the transfer. The difference between Knowledge and Wisdom is...

	Re: Audio splitter problem by Ty Ford on May 12, 2009 at 6:24:07 pm [Mark Allen] "I don't know alot about pin configuration, but from the previous posts I take it you could split the channels if it was on a 5-pin but not a 3 pin. Is this correct? Also, does the ability to choose stereo or mix make any difference in trying to split the audio out feed? " Hi Mark, Unless they are running unbalanced audio out of that 3-pin, you will only get one output. Stereo might make a mono mix (but why would they call it stereo??) You have a strange beast. Try listening and switching and make your decision accordingly. Regards, Ty Ford Want better production audio?: Ty Ford's Audio Bootcamp Field Guide Respond to this post   •   Return to posts index
