Gain Sliders: Ensures that each pre-amplifier (Pre-Amp) slider has the same value. If you select the check
box while the sliders have different values, you must change one (1) slider for all sliders to sync up.
Volume Sliders: Ensures that each headphone (Headphone) slider has the same value, so that you can
control the master volume for headphones. If you select the check box while the sliders have different
values, you must change one (1) slider for all sliders to sync up.
CHANNEL NAME
You can rename each audio channel. The default names are Ch1, Ch2, Ch3, and Ch4. The channel names
display in the Audio Meter, but are not included in the clip metadata. For more information, go to “Audio Meter
(VU Meter)” on page 138 .
CHANNEL MODES
Match the channel mode to the incoming audio signal.
MODE SOURCE DESCRIPTION
NONE NONE Audio recording disabled.
BALANCED CAM ANALOG,
PRO I/O ANALOG
Balanced microphone input. Enables the 48V phantom power option.
Typically used with microphones that have XLR connectors and internal
batteries.
UNBALANCED CAM ANALOG,
PRO I/O ANALOG
Unbalanced microphone input with 3.3V bias. Disables the 48V
phantom power option. Typically used with unpowered microphones
that have 3.5 mm TRS plugs.
LINE PRO I/O ANALOG Fixed input gain with limiter settings if limiter is enabled. Disables the
48V phantom power option.
AES PRO I/O AES A,
PRO I/O AES B
Only mode available for AES input. Disables the limiter and 48V
phantom power options.
PHANTOM POWER (48V POWER)
Select the 48V Power check box to enable 48V phantom power for an audio channel. The 48V phantom power
option is only available when the channel mode is set to BALANCED.
LIMITER
Select the Limiter check box to add a limiter to the analog input signal chain. The limiter adds about 12 dB of
dynamic headroom to avoid clipping on signal spikes. Use the limiter in dynamic environments where external
mixers are not practical for controlling signal strength. The limiter is only available with analog audio input.
