DSMC2 HELIUM OPERATION GUIDE

CHAPTER 7:

AUDIO SYSTEM

AUDIO OVERVIEW

The BRAIN has two (2) integrated dual channel digital stereo microphones that record uncompressed audio at 24-bit
48 kHz. These microphones offer you the ability to capture scratch-track audio.

The DSMC2 Base Expander, DSMC2 V-Lock I/O Expander, DSMC2 REDVOLT Expander, and DSMC2 Production
Module each feature a built-in headphone jack, so you can hear the audio during playback via headphones. Together,
the integrated microphones and headphone jack offer an audio solution for run-and-gun shoots.

Additional audio input/output options are determined by the attached expander or module. For the highest level of
professional audio recording, RED recommends using the DSMC2 REDVOLT Expander or DSMC2 Production
Module, which feature two (2) full-size XLR audio jacks.

The camera can record up to four (4) discrete stereo channels of uncompressed 24-bit, 48 kHz audio.

Input signals are routed via a high-quality pre-amplifier to achieve the desired recording levels and maximize dynamic
range.

Audio data is synchronized with video and timecode and embedded in the R3D

®

file. You can export audio data from

REDCINE-X PRO

®

as separate audio files.

Audio is also embedded in any HD-SDI and HDMI

®

output connected to the camera (except the MON-1 signal).

NOTE:

If using a third-party module, some audio controls may not be available in-camera.
